Since there are no Catholic cemeteries in the Upstate, several Catholic Churches have a columbarium. Members of JORS have dreamed about having a columbarium on the campus. The time has come to fulfill that dream. There will be a parish meeting on Thursday March 21st at 7:00pm in the APR. A columbarium is a sacred, consecrated location approved by the Catholic Church, where urns of cremated remains are placed. It completes the circle of life from birth to baptism, confirmation, marriage, and memorial services by providing a final resting place for reflection and remembrance —which is part of JORS’s on-going ministry to both the living and the dead.
