The Thursday Murder Club : Novel by Richard Osman

Dear Friends,
Could you please help me understand?
Thanks in advance.

Of course. And I took my spade, and , but I chose a grave, of one of the Sisters.
(***She is confessing for a priest in church that she dug a grave) What does she mean?
It's " I don’t want these walls to crumble... around us". It means I don't want these wall to collapse with us in the middle of them. She is suggesting that digging up the grave of a long-dead nun is such a sacrilegeous crime that it might cause the church to tremble and fall.
