Calvary Cemetery | Calvary Mortuary (FD1681) is among the oldest and largest cemeteries in Los Angeles, and it is minutes from the heart city. On the gently rolling parkland are the Stations of the Cross, placed at intervals along the main drive, prayed on Sundays in Lent and in November. Calvary’s spacious mortuary (18,000 square feet) features three large visitation rooms, four private arrangement rooms, a visitors’ lounge, and a flower shop. The Calvary mausoleum is adorned with beautiful stained glass and hand-painted ceilings. It is here that you may join us daily for Mass. Notable on the Calvary skyline is the well-known All Souls Chapel, an ornate Gothic church with a gabled tower and spire.

She handed me an origami crane while welcoming me to her table. Among the hand outs were flyers explaining the history of Catholicism in Japan, prayer cards, and a postcard advertising the Manzanar Pilgrimage. Wow, I thought, I need to go to this!

It is a tribute to Jesus’ final hours leading up to his crucifixion, as participants follow a series of winding roads through the cemetery, stopping at 14 markers along the way. .
