Join us for the 8th annual Wreaths Across America event at St. John Cemetery, a non-profit campaign to honor and remember our veterans. This tribute started at Arlington National Cemetery, and is now held at over 4200 locations across the country.
Our opening ceremony with local veterans and firefighters is on Saturday, Dec. 14th at noon, behind our office & chapel building. All are welcome to help place wreaths on the graves of our veterans, say their names out loud, and thank them for their service immediately following the opening ceremony.
With the help of local volunteers, we are raising funds to purchase these wreaths to commemorate the lives of the 2300 veterans laid to rest at St. John Cemetery. This is a wonderful way to honor those who serve and have served in our Armed Forces, or to commemorate the life and sacrifice of a loved one. Will you join us in honoring our service men and women, our veterans and their families?
Sponsor a wreath for $17, or sponsor three wreaths for only $34 – St. John Cemetery is signed up for a buy two, get one free program!

You can also donate by making a check payable to Wreaths Across America and mailing it to St. John Cemetery’s office at 403 E. South Street, Jackson, MI 49203.
