WE NEED YOUR HELP with the Thanksgiving Food Baskets. Donations have decreased the past couple of years. Please help. You can bring food donations when you come to Church or to the Rectory during the week. Please make sure to check the expiration dates. Also, we cannot use open boxes or bags. Cash donations will be accepted and used for turkeys, bread, etc. Thank you!
"COINS FOR CRIBS" - an Advent outreach program at Holy Cross. As we prepare to celebrate the Birth of Baby Jesus at Christmas, our parish will collect coins during Advent that will be used for baby cribs. The money will be given to "Cradle of Hope" - a non-profit organization that works with mothers and infants in crisis. All loose coins received in the weekly collection plate will be given to this project. Bring extra coins to Church! If you wish to give dollars or a check, please put your gift in an envelope marked "Cradle of Hope." Thank you.
