2025 Pilgrimage Site
The 2025 Jubilee will be centered on the theme "Pilgrims of Hope" which is also one of our diocesan mission values. One way of celebrating the Jubilee is visiting one of six designated pilgrimage sites in the diocese during the Jubilee year. As the original resting place of Msgr Buh, Calvary Cemetery is listed as one of these sites. Visit the original grave site of Msgr Joseph Buh within the priest circle of our Cemetery. For more on the Jubilee year visit the Duluth Diocese Jubilee Year website. For more on Msgr Buh, visit https://josephbuh.org/.

Why a Catholic Cemetery?
Just as our human body deserves to be treated with respect and dignity in life, so should it be treated in death. Burial of the deceased's body or ashes in a Catholic cemetery shows respect for what God has created. For the living, Catholic cemeteries provide familiar symbols of faith which can offer spiritual support in a time of bereavement. It is a place where family and friends can gather in prayer to support one another and to commend their loved ones to the mercy of our God.
As people of faith, our burial places have an important meaning for us, since they are sacred places. Each visit to the cemetery can be a reminder of the love, fellowship and faith we shared with those who have died. It is also a reminder of our own mortality and our firm belief in the Resurrection of the dead.
