Catholic Cemeteries of the Archdiocese of St. Louis - Interment Search - Cemetery Search - Burial Search - Grave Search
Description
The chief responsibility of the Board of Trustees of the Catholic Cemeteries of The Archdiocese of St. Louis is to direct the Management of the Catholic Cemeteries to provide the people with places of burial that are representative of The Church's reverence for the remains of the faithful departed and its hope in the resurrection. Its goals are both spiritual and temporal: The spiritual goals are that the Catholic cemetery be a place of comfort on the day of the funeral and the years that follow. To do so the cemeteries are to be conducive to the funeral liturgy and its personnel helpful in providing sound counsel in the selection of a family plot responsive to family needs and its vision of itself.
We bury our dear ones with love. A love that the Church and cemetery personnel share with each family that uses its burial facilities. Love is not for the moment, for we believe that the dead shall rise again on the Last Day to be reunited with their loved ones. Love reaches far into the future expressing itself in caring for the place of burial and the beauty of the surrounding cemetery grounds. Love is not narrow or exclusive for one's own, but embracing all who lay in the hallowed ground shared by their family. The Catholic cemetery is a place of love by the Church, The Mystical Body of Christ for all of its members, the living and the dead.
The temporal concerns are to make the spiritual goals possible by sound management, which require that a fair wage be paid to the men and women who make everything happen in the cemetery and that up to date horticulture principles and the best interment facilities and techniques available be adopted. Since the Church's love is widely defined as to time and place, old burial grounds must be looked after and new facilities developed as the population shifts and grows.
