About the Little Angels Shrine
The Little Angels Shrine at Resurrection Cemetery is dedicated to babies, infants, and toddlers who have gone home to God.
This consecrated ground honors the memory of all deceased children, and it provides a reverent place of prayer and healing for parents and others who have experienced the death of a child.
The shrine features an altar area with seats and benches for services, surrounded by 14 Carrara marble Stations of the Cross on granite platforms. Beyond that, there are five memorial walls where remains, when available, will be buried, and a plaque will be affixed to the wall. When remains are not available, a plaque honoring your child will be placed on a memorial wall at the shrine.
Monthly Service Honoring Our Children
We will gather on one Saturday each month to host a service and receive your remains, which will be secured and interred the following week by our field staff. There will be no charge for the service, burial, plaques/inscriptions, but we gratefully accept your donation to help support this sacred and healing space.
