Mission Statement
Because of our faith perspective, Diocesan Catholic Cemeteries cannot be looked upon primarily as a business. Rather, they are sacred places where the dead repose in Christ until their resurrection and where the bereaved are ministered to. This ministry, as Catholic Christian witness, is to give consolation to those who have been touched by death because of the hope of eternal life which our faith in the Resurrection of Jesus Christ gives us. Through baptism, we have been baptized not only into the Lord’s redeemingANNOUNCEMENTS:
HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY AND MEMORIAL DAY!
THE CEMETERIES ARE A DEEPLY PERSONAL PLACE FOR MANY FAMILIES. WE UNDERSTAND THE DESIRE TO INTERACT WITH AND HONOR LOVED ONES, BUT WE MUST ALSO RESPECT THE HISTORIC AND COMMUNAL ATMOSPHERE THAT MAKE THE ERIE DIOCESAN CEMETERIES SPECIAL. PLEASE RESPECT THE CEMETERIES FOR THE BENEFIT OF COMMUNITY MEMBERS, PAST AND FUTURE, BY ABIDING BY OUR RULES. PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND OUR RULES FOR CARING AND DECORATING GRAVES; THESE REGULATIONS WILL ENSURE THE CEMETERIES ARE SERVING THE COMMUNITY FOR MANY GENERATIONS TO COME.
NEW EXTERIOR COLUMBARIUM CREMATION NICHES HAVE BEEN INSTALLED AT GATE OF HEAVEN CEMETERY. THEY ARE LOCATED DIRECTLY SOUTH OF THE MAIN ENTRANCE SURROUNDING THE MEDAL OF OUR LADY OF GRACES MONUMENT. PLEASE CONTACT US AT 814-838-7724 TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINMENT FOR INFORMATION OR PURCHASE.
ARTIFICAL FLOWERS ARE NOT PERMITTED BETWEEN APRIL 1ST AND OCTOBER 31ST. THEY WILL BE REMOVED WITHOUT NOTICE.
