All Saints Cemetery, one of 14 diocesan-operated cemeteries, is the first new diocesan cemetery built since 1955. It was constructed to meet the needs for a Catholic cemetery in the growing Gloucester County area. The cemetery grounds span 25 acres and can accommodate approximately 25,000 ground burial spaces.
Plans are also underway for the construction of a new mausoleum to accommodate more than 1650 crypts and 240 niche spaces for cremation urns. The cemetery office is now open.
In addition to the diocesan-operated cemeteries, there are 12 parish-run cemeteries in the diocese. For more information, contact the Diocesan Office of Cemeteries at 856-583-2850.
