Cremation Burial Options
Many Catholics are unaware that the Church has accepted cremation since 1963. Since that time, the practice has increased in many countries for a number of reasons. Unfortunately, with this increase comes practices that require clarification.
Following the most ancient Christian tradition, the Church asks that the faithful, in preparing their funeral and burial arrangements, ensure that the bodies of Catholics are buried in cemeteries or other sacred places.

Columbaria are granite structures with niches where urns with ashes may be placed. A bronze plaque and a memorial photo ceramic is attached to the niche to memorialize a loved one.
