In 2005, Beechwood Cemetery proudly entered into a partnership with the St. John the Baptist Ukrainian Catholic Shrine to create a dedicated sacred space within the National Cemetery of Canada for members of the parish community.

Located in Station 4 of Section 110, this specially designated area includes more than 100 burial lots of varying sizes, thoughtfully established to serve the spiritual, cultural, and family needs of the parish for generations to come.

This partnership reflects a shared commitment to faith, remembrance, and community, ensuring that parish families have a place where traditions, heritage, and loved ones can remain connected in perpetuity within a peaceful and dignified setting.

Beechwood also proudly hosts an annual Day of Remembrance and Victory over Nazism in the Second World War ceremony each year on May 8 in partnership with the Embassy of Ukraine in Canada and the Ukrainian Canadian Congress. This important national commemoration brings together members of the Ukrainian community, veterans, dignitaries, and Canadians in a shared act of remembrance, reflection, and solidarity.
