Associated Catholic Cemeteries
Catholic Cemeteries are sacred places for the burial of members of our Faith Community and their families. These cemeteries are signs of hope, places of prayer, and witness our belief in the resurrection promised by Jesus Christ. Evangelization and catechesis is provided through education of parishioners about pre-arrangement planning as well as through scheduled opportunities for prayer. ACC also serves as a resource to all parishes regarding funeral and burial related issues.

Existential Depression in Teens 1 in 8 teens will experience depression while they are in High School, yet only 1 in 5 of those teens will receive help. A common type of depression, often overlooked by adults, is existential depression. (Roy Petitfils)

Stephen Ministries in Catholic Parishes 
Stephen Ministry is helping priests and laypeople alike in many Catholic parishes reach out with God’s love and presence to others. Stephen Ministry is the one-to-one lay caring ministry that takes place in congregations that use the Stephen Series system. Stephen Ministry congregations equip and empower lay caregivers—called Stephen Ministers—to provide high-quality, confidential, Christ-centered care to people who are hurting.

Cabrini Ministry Offers an in-depth formation program in which students become immersed in the experience of giving and receiving pastoral care.  We employ proven adult-learning practices that make our training a transformational experience.

Beginning Experience The purpose of the Beginning Experience ministry is to facilitate the grief resolution process for separated, divorced and widowed persons, and children of these losses, thereby enabling them to again love themselves, others and God. We accomplish the purpose by offering quality, copyrighted, grief resolution programs presented by trained peer ministers.
