Catholic Cemetery Association

Our Creed

We believe…OUR CATHOLIC CEMETERIES are providing the most basic and vital of human need, while ushering the most awesome of human encounters, Resurrection.

We believe…OUR CATHOLIC CEMETERIES, while fulfilling our final earthly stewardship, signify our sending forth on the mission eternal.

We believe…OUR CATHOLIC CEMETERIES, serving man’s dignified interment purpose, become hallowed at God’s hand, and consecrated by His embrace.

We believe…OUR CATHOLIC CEMETERIES are given dedicated care of lawns and roadways, are enhanced by the beauty of flowers and trees, but it is because we treasure memories of our loved ones whose bodies wait therein, that make this a holy place of special significance in our community.

We believe…OUR CATHOLIC CEMETERIES, in a tangible way, project a sign of our faith, give witness to our compassion, and speak a powerful message that we accept death as the pre-requisite conditioner for us all. May our faith be shared, may our compassion be emulated, and may our acceptance be understood, by family, by visitors and by passers-by.

Therefore, We believe…OUR CATHOLIC CEMETERIES merit, by those who preside over and by those who pass through, our forthright diligence, our utmost efficiency, our humble respect and our sacred honor. Whether we give care, offer prayer, visit or rest within, may our experience of CATHOLIC CEMETERIES be enriching, be transforming and be blessed.
