 CEMETERY DECORATIONS ,  PLEASE LIMIT DECORATIONS TO ONE PER GRAVE
 Natural and Artificial flowers are permitted. Pots are not to exceed 10 inches in diameter. Planters Boxes – Not exceeding 18 inches in length, 8 inches in width, 6 inches high. All containers should be of plastic or wood construction with ample drainage. They must be placed on the marker/concrete slab, not on the turf.  The Cemetery will not take responsibility for damaged or stolen decorations. Some containers are not suitable for snow and harsh winter weather.

Metal stands, shepherd hooks, glass, statuary, decorative stones, and border edging are strictly prohibited.
Candles or solar lights of any kind are not permitted. These restrictions are necessary for safety reasons.   Any of these objects can be picked up and hurled by lawn mowing equipment, making them potential hazards to visitors and the cemetery staff. They will be removed and disposed of immediately. 

Artificial flowers are permitted on all graves in approved permanent vases or containers. All vases must be set on the concrete and must have a hole in the bottom, so that water will not be contained in the vase.  American and Firemen Flags may be placed in planters with plants, or in approved permanent vases, or in the metal stake provided for this purpose. Flags may not be stuck into the ground.  During the growing season, our field staff removes non-compliant items.

 
DECORACIONES EN EL CEMENTERIO DE SAN PATRICIO EN ROCHELLE, ILLINOIS.
Querido pueblo de DIos, les recuerdo y les comparto las reglas o normas que debemos de seguir en nuestro Cementerio católico parroquial.  Usted ya puede colocar sus nuevas decoraciones después de la limpieza que hemos realizado para esta primavera. Todas las decoraciones/coronas deben estar en un caballete sobre la plataforma de concreto o la piedra de su ser querido.

POR FAVOR, LIMITE LAS DECORACIONES A UNA POR TUMBA. Se permiten flores naturales y artificiales. Las macetas no deben exceder las 10 pulgadas de diámetro. Las cajas para macetas: que no excedan las 18 pulgadas de largo, 8 pulgadas de ancho, 6 pulgadas de alto. Todos los contenedores deben ser de plástico o de madera con un orificio de drenaje. Deben colocarse sobre el marcador o la losa, no sobre el césped. El Cementerio no se hará responsable por decoraciones dañadas o robadas.

MUCHA ATENCIÓN: Los soportes de metal, los ganchos de pastor, cosas de vidrio, las estatuas, las piedras decorativas y los bordes están estrictamente prohibidos. No se permiten velas ni luces solares de ningún tipo. Estas restricciones son necesarias por razones de seguridad. Cualquiera de estos objetos puede ser recogido y arrojado por el equipo para cortar el césped, lo que los convierte en un peligro potencial para los visitantes y el personal del cementerio. Serán retirados y eliminados inmediatamente.

​Se permiten flores artificiales en todas las tumbas en jarrones o contenedores permanentes aprobados. Todos los jarrones deben colocarse sobre el concreto y deben tener un agujero en el fondo, para que el agua no quede contenida en el jarrón.

Las Banderas Americana y de Bomberos podrán colocarse en maceteros con plantas, o en jarrones permanentes aprobados, o en la estaca de metal prevista para este fin. Las banderas no pueden clavarse en el suelo. Durante la temporada del pasto, nuestro personal de campo elimina los artículos que no cumplen con las reglas que aquí se les presentan.

Les agradezco de ante mano, que cuidemos de este lugar sagrado donde descansan nuestros seres queridos difuntos al seguir las normas y así tener un lugar limpio, digno y que cumpla con los requisimos diocesanos.

​Welcome to St. Patrick Parish!

I am excited and grateful to be welcoming you to our website.  I know of no better faith community within which to pray, deepen, and live our faith.  I hope you find our presence on the Internet as warm and inviting as our Eucharistic-centered parish family.

We are a diverse parish and always eager to see new faces. Please browse around this website to learn about our Mass Schedule for the upcoming week, parish events, and information that you might need.

St. Patrick Parish is a community of people who believe in being Church in its beautiful diversity – traditional to contemporary, of all ages, backgrounds, and experiences.

We seek to live vibrant lives informed by the gospel of Jesus and fed by the Eucharist.  We believe that Christ embraces us in each moment, no matter what. 

We pray, with spirited Eucharistic celebrations at the center of our shared faith life. We learn through our commitment to life-long faith formation.  We serve as our prayer and learning direct us to live our faith in our relationships with family and friends, and through parish ministries and community outreach.

We hope that you will find our  website informative, our parish celebrations inspiring,  and our community  welcoming. 

We hope you will be fed in Word & Sacrament during our weekend liturgies and you will want to be a part of our community,  whether for a weekend or a lifetime, and share our spiritual, social and service experiences.  Please explore these possibilities both in person and through our website.

Thank you for your interest in St. Patrick Parish!  I look forward to your visit to St. Patrick and, perhaps, your decision to continue your journey of faith with us. 

May we be grateful to live in the presence of God – always!
Peace,              

Rev. Jesus Dominguez
