The past year’s challenges have enlightened many to realize there has never been a better time to protect their loved ones’ legacy. The loss of a loved one is a significant life event that is often a time of sorrow and uncertainty, but Christ The King Cemetery’s Open House event can provide peace of mind and significant savings. See the new video for more information.

Catholic Cemeteries of the Archdiocese of Newark is scheduling several open house events throughout Essex, Union, Bergen, Hudson, and Middlesex counties to help Catholics gain knowledge and confidence before that difficult time arises.

Come to the next Open House weekend Saturday, September 30, and Sunday, October 1, from 8:30 am-4:30 pm at Christ The King Cemetery in Franklin Lakes, NJ.

Caring and professional Memorial Planning Advisors will meet with you to share information about burial and cremation options, memorialization, and financial planning. There are several payment options available, including 0% interest for 48 months.

Are You Keeping The Cremains Of Your Loved One At Home? Consider Bringing Them Home (To The Lord)

Catholics believe the cremated remains of loved ones should be given a sacred and dignified resting space. Having cremains interred in a chapel mausoleum or cemetery also offers families a designated place and time to grieve, heal, pray, and honor the memories of their loved one, surrounded by magnificent liturgical art inspired by the Holy Family, the Apostles, heavenly saints, and angels.

By contrast, when the cremated remains are left in a home, they can fade into the background of everyday life and be left forgotten.

Meet with our caring and professional Memorial Planning Advisors to learn how easy it is to have your loved one's cremated remains interred in one of our mausoleums or cemeteries.
