We cordially invite you to our Shoulder of Faith Celebration at Holy Cross Church on Sunday September 15, 2024, from 10:00 AM-4:00 PM. Our celebration will begin with Mass at 10:00 AM celebrated by our bishop, Most Reverend Salvatore R. Matano.

Through this Shoulders of Faith movement and recognizing 161 years of Strong Catholic Faith, our Stewardship Committee is encouraging all of us to reflect on the history of Holy Cross Church and consider how our generation can commit to maintaining and advancing the mission of our Catholic Faith through increased participation and engagement.

How can each of us participate in the rebuilding of our faith community? How can we get involved in the spiritual and economic growth of Holy Cross, so it is here for future generations? Moving forward, what can each of us carry on our shoulders and share with our children and grandchildren, along with our friends and neighbors?

Mass will be followed by Festivities for all ages between 11:00 AM and 4:00 PM in the Parish Center and on the church grounds. All are welcome and are encouraged to invite family and friends to seize this opportunity!
