Each gift is important to the mission of our Archdiocese; it takes many people to form the Body of Christ. Holy Cross Parish receives 25% of all gifts made through the parish for our educational programs. If you have not already sent in a pledge, please prayerfully consider doing so. Thank you for your support! |

EUCHARISTIC ADORATION In the Gospel of today we read about JESUS describing the paschal mystery. Three times and in three different ways we are told about death. By dying to self we rise to new life.
