75 Years As A Beacon of Ministry and Faith

Gate of Heaven Cemetery

Since the first interment in 1948, God’s presence continues to permeate these 160 acres of sacred ground here at Gate of Heaven Cemetery in Archdiocese of Cincinnati.

With great respect and appreciation for all of the individuals and families that have shared their sentiments and experiences at Gate of Heaven, we share with you this video compilation, which illustrates a few of the “whats, wheres, whys and hows” of our vocation to promote the spirit of Christian peace and joy.

Leading God’s Children in Prayers for Souls – Being Together, Praying Together

Lisa’s Story at Gate of Heaven Cemetery

Lisa kindly shares her story of leading families from her church in prayer every year here at Gate of Heaven. The Sacred Heart Club from her church, continue their tradition to bring their families on the first Saturday of November to pray for the souls of those from their church interred here. Lisa, also leads their Sacred Heart Club through the Stations of the Cross at Gate of Heaven every year during Lent.

By joining together in prayer on this sacred ground every year, it helps “water the seeds” of their little ones in God’s words. They find peace by being together and praying together here as His Family, in His name.
