Caring for a Restful Place

$2,200

To ensure a peaceful and prepared space for your loved one, the contribution for a plot or niche is $2,200, which is kindly requested to be completed as we begin the planning journey together.

 Financial 

To help us manage these sacred arrangements with care, the parish accepts contributions via check or cash. We ask that all offerings be finalized before we proceed with the details of the service.

Respecting the Sacred Grounds

To maintain the peaceful harmony of our parish cemetery, we provide these gentle guidelines for memorials. While gravestones are not included in the initial plot cost, we are here to support you in these arrangements once the final balance is settled. To protect the sacred beauty of the grounds, all memorials for the niches and tombstones must be coordinated through JM White Funeral Home and be flat in design, ensuring they remain consistent with the existing landscape of our shared resting place.

To ensure visitor safety and follow Diocese of Raleigh guidelines, please note that standing crosses and loose objects are not permitted on cemetery grounds; only flowers are allowed.

Sacred Vessel Dimensions

5" wide x 9" long x 4" high

To ensure your loved one's resting place is prepared with care, we kindly ask that urns follow these specific dimensions. Our companions at JM White are available to help with these vessels, and each columbarium niche is lovingly designed to accommodate up to two urns of this size.

A Place for Loving Remembrance

To maintain the beauty and uniformity of our grounds, we ask that all monuments and markers adhere to the following size specifications. The team at JM White is familiar with these standards and can help you design a memorial that fits perfectly within your allotted space while honoring your loved one’s memory.

A Note on Reopening

$250 provides for the careful reopening of a niche when the time comes for a second interment, ensuring your loved one is cared for with grace.

The Sacred Celebration of Life

Should your family choose to celebrate a Funeral Mass within our sanctuary, a church donation of $450 helps support the ongoing ministry and care of our worship space.
