An Online Memorial

TheCemeteryoftheInnocents

In October 2026, our pink and blue flags filled the lawn at St. Thomas the Apostle, one for every child lost to abortion in a single month in Arizona. The display was for one weekend; this page is where we keep its memory.

Our Mission

01Sanctity of LifeWe believe every human life is sacred from conception to natural death.Every person is created in the image and likeness of God, and that dignity is never lost, whatever their age, ability, or circumstance.“You formed my inmost being; you knit me in my mother’s womb.”Psalm 139:13About our ministry

02Faith-CenteredRooted in Catholic teaching and guided by prayer, scripture, and the sacraments.Everything we do begins in prayer, above all the Rosary, and grows out of our life together as a parish at St. Thomas the Apostle.“Pray without ceasing.”1 Thessalonians 5:17Pray with us

03Community SupportSupporting mothers, families, and all those facing difficult decisions.We want every mother and family to know they are not alone, and to meet them with compassion rather than judgment.“Bear one another’s burdens.”Galatians 6:2Ways to help

We pray for mothers, for their babies, and for those working in the abortion industry.“Do not be conquered by evil but conquer evil with good.”Romans 12:21Upcoming events
