Activities

Youth group caps busy year with car wash

On June 22, 2008, the Holy Cross Youth Group held the final activity of their busy year, washing cars for parishioners at the weekend Masses when the weather permitted. Proceeds of the car wash helped support two pilgrims attending World Youth Day, a member of NET Ministries, and the ongoing activities of the Youth Group.

Dirty Car? Come to Mass!

Let God clean your soul at mass while we clean your car in the parking lot!

The Holy Cross Youth group will be holding their second annual parish car wash fund raiser at all masses on the weekend of June 21/22, 2008. Upon arrival, simply park your car in any space in the church parking lot, and by the time mass ends, your vehicle will be sparkling clean!

Eucharistic Procession for the Feast of Corpus Christi

To mark the Feast of the Body and Blood of Christ, Holy Cross Parish held a Eucharistic Procession after the 9:30 Mass on Sunday, May 25, 2008. During his homily, Deacon John Kennedy stressed that the procession symbolized our dedication to carrying Christ into the world.

Spring Cleaning at Holy Cross

A large crew of volunteers cleaned the interior, outside windows and yard at Holy Cross on Saturday, May 17, 2008.

Each year, devoted parishioners turn out to wash the pews, clean windows and dust all the surfaces. Yard work includes picking up litter, washing the windows and pruning trees; in addition, the computer systems were updated. This year, the volunteers were bolstered by a large turnout from the parish Youth Group.
