The logo for the Catholic Cemeteries of
the Archdiocese of Newark incorporates the symbols of the Holy Spirit and
the empty cross, as it is through the Grace of God and the Sacrifice of His
Son, that we are offered eternal life.
The green around the cross and the
blue border of the logo represents our earthly existence and experience
Christ shared with us. The white represents Christ’s purity, and the
red, sacrifice. The gold and purple, the colors of royalty, represents His
reign in Heaven.
The logo represents the Catholic belief
in the Holy Trinity, the sun beams, the rays of faith that our heavenly
Father sends to us with the gift of faith. The cross is the symbol of the
sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the Son of God the Father. The cross carries
with it the hope of our eternal life in heaven. The dove, the Holy Spirit,
remains with us, showing us grace, which is so necessary to assist us in
loving God and our neighbor and which expresses charity in our lives.
