Jesus the Good Shepherd Cemetery
History
On November 1st (All Saints Day) 2015, The Covenant Community of Jesus the Good Shepherd was proud to dedicate our new cemetery. The cemetery is part of a larger network of Catholic cemeteries in the Archdiocese of Washington. Arranging for a proper Christian burial in accordance with church teaching is our final and lasting witness of our resounding "Yes" to Jesus's call. A Catholic cemetery also serves the living faithful. Cemeteries offer the living the opportunity for consolation, hope, and remembrance. A cemetery is a tangible monument of the extended community of Christian believers, which is unbroken by death.
