Liturgies and Prayers.

The Church has always cared for those who grieve while honoring the memory of those who have died. A Catholic cemetery is a sacred place both for personal prayer for the souls of friends and family members, and for the prayer of the whole Church at the monthly Masses in the cemetery chapels.

Monthly Masses
Below is a schedule of Masses and the cemetery location at which the Mass is celebrated:


Lord, support us all the day long,
until the shadows lengthen and the evening comes,
and the busy world is hushed
and the fever of life is over
and our work is done.
Then in thy mercy grant us a safe lodging
and a holy rest,
and peace at the last.
Amen.

St. John Henry Newman

"...For we know that when this tent we live-- our body here on earth-- is torn down, God will have a house in heaven for us to live in; a home he himself made, which will last forever..."
