Catholic Cemeteries' web site!

Greetings,

I encourage your support and use of the Catholic Cemeteries.

Since 1857, almost 450,000 of God's children have been buried in the archdiocesan cemeteries. The final expression of our Catholic faith is to have a sacred burial in a Catholic cemetery. This is where we rest among believers in consecrated grounds, awaiting the resurrection to life everlasting. Burial in a Catholic cemetery is an act of dignity, reverence, and respect. It is the sacred right and privilege of every Catholic to choose burial in a Catholic cemetery as another way to continue our faith tradition.

May God bless us with hope and peace in His Risen Son!

Faithfully in Christ,

Archbishop of Milwaukee
