Saint John's Cemetery assists individuals and families as they plan for burial, lays the earthly remains of loved ones to rest among those who have preceded them into eternal life, and provides a peaceful, reverent setting to remember those who have died.

In 1851 land for our cemetery was donated by early settler Abraham Lambert. Dedicated in 1855, Saint John's Cemetery is the second oldest cemetery in Minnesota. It is located one block east of the church on Little Canada Road. Over one hundred members of pioneer families are buried in the oldest section near the entrance gate. The life-sized Crucifixion scene facing the gate provides the backdrop for the annual Memorial Day Mass in the cemetery.

Infant Interment Section
A special section of the cemetery is dedicated to our Infant Interment Ministry. Through this ministry we offer prayers and support to those experiencing a miscarriage, stillbirth or infant death. For further information, please contact our Pastoral Minister, Eric Cooley at 651-288-3268.
