Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary Cemetery and Church


A beautiful old Catholic cemetery tucked within a grove of trees on the north side of Mazenod, Saskatchewan. 

Above, the main marker houses a statue of Jesus in an alcove and states that a perpetual fund for care of the cemetery was instituted in 1985.

The church was re-purposed as a workshop/garage many years ago.


Possibly the original cast iron water pump.

    1. The church is quite an unusual design and the grounds are beautiful. Thankfully, someone really loves this place.
