PASTORAL REFERENCES

Frequently we receive requests for Pastoral Reference Letters from people who are seeking employment within the Catholic school system.   Because of the seriousness of these requests, and the rightful expectations of both the parents and the Church, those planning to teach in our Catholic schools should be believers who are genuinely trying to practice and live their faith.  Therefore, BEFORE requesting a Pastoral Reference, please ensure the following:

• You live within the geographical boundaries of Holy Cross Parish.
• You have been a registered member of the Parish for at least 6 months.
• You are truly trying to attend Mass each Sunday.
• You participate in the sacramental and pastoral life of the Church community.
• You are in good canonical standing within the Church.
• You financially support the work and mission of the Church.
