Holy Innocents: ministry to families who have miscarried

HOLY INNOCENTS is a ministry of the Archdiocese of Baltimore, facilitated by the Offices of Cemetery Management & Life, Justice and Peace. Its primary mission is to assure every child who is miscarried (dying before birth) has a sacred place to be buried.

If you or someone you know is miscarrying or has miscarried and needs a sacred place to bury the child, please call 410-547-3142. There is no cost to the family for this ministry.

Please keep this ministry in mind, when in the future someone you know has a miscarriage and wishes to bury the child. Pastoral visitors will arrange to take custody of the child and secure the child until burial. If the child is born at a hospital, arrangements with the hospital will occur. Burials occurs twice per year at Holy Cross Catholic Cemetery in Anne Arundel County.

If interested in more information, please contact:

ministry of the 14th station of the cross: burial of ashes

The Archdiocese of Baltimore provides a final resting place for those who are cremated but not buried. Since cremation has become a more accepted practice, more families are choosing cremation though many are not choosing burial at the time of cremation. As years and decades pass, the next generation inherit the urns of their grandparents and great grandparents, increasing the incidents of the urns being misplaced and forgotten. The ministry is also for the recently deceased.

The Ministry of the 14th Station of the Cross buries the deceased in sacred ground allowing the deceased to rest in peace. There is a minimal fee of $350 for the burial.

The burial occurs annually in November (Month of All Souls). The urns are placed in one vault and buried. This opportunity also provides families peace of mind, as they now know where their family member is perpetually buried.

The burial is at Holy Cross Cemetery in Anne Arundel County.

Please contact the Office of Cemetery Management
