Welcome Alums, Oblates, and Friends of Saint John’s

“A sense of place.” Over the years, many have used these words to describe their feelings about the Saint John's campus and their experiences here. With these words in mind, the monks of Saint John’s took special care in designing the Saint John’s Abbey Cemetery for alums, oblates, employees, retirees, and friends. 

The cemetery offers a peaceful and prayerful setting for all who may wish to have a space at Saint John’s.
