Rev. Msgr. J. Kenneth Rush, Jr., Pastor

Rev. Jim Gallagher, Jr, in residence


6th Sunday of Easter

 

This is my commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one's life for one's friends.


Holy Cross Mission Statement

Called by God through Baptism, empowered by the Holy Spirit,
formed by the Word, nourished by the Eucharist,
we gather together in our diversity as a community of Faith,
worship and service, to share with others the love of Jesus Christ our Risen Lord. 
 

May 1, 2010

St. Joseph, master carpenter and builder, pray for our parish community at Holy Cross.

Inspired by your example of faithful love for Mary and Jesus, and with the support of your people, may we continue to serve God faithfully, work together to build up God's kingdom, and be the people our Lord Jesus calls us be.

Amen

Msgr. J. Kenneth Rush

WHAT ABOUT THE ROOF AND STEEPLE -
now that we have finished the repairs to the church?
We have done historical research into what the steeple originally looked
like, and some of our parishioners working with the architect have developed concepts of what it will look like.  We are preparing to sent out bid packages with the plan of starting the work this summer.
A presentation will be given during Mass on the weekend of May 12 and 13.
