“We adore you, O Christ, and we praise you because by your Holy Cross you have redeemed the world.”
It has been so encouraging to hear how much you are doing to stay prayerfully connected to one another, the parish, and the Church. Thank you, again, to all those who have become “buddies” with our Seniors and others who are homebound. Keep up the good work! We are mindful that this is a stressful and challenging time for everyone. Thank you all for rising to the occasion.
Catholic Sentinel – New Electronic Format
With the stay at home order, not as many of us will be able to pick up a printed copy of the Catholic Sentinel from the parish office. In the meantime, be sure to check out the latest issues of the Catholic Sentinel in a new, electronic format: www.MySentinelNow.org.
Holy Week
Holy Week is almost upon us, with Palm Sunday this weekend. It will be a Holy Week different than any other we have experienced as a Church! Let us keep each other in prayer.
Holy Week at Holy Cross – As of Friday, April 3rd we are still working at getting live-streaming up and running here in the parish, but the Palm Sunday Mass will be uploaded onto the parish website Sunday morning (April 5th). Blessed palms and parish bulletins will be available after 10am on Sunday. (When live-streaming becomes available, we will promptly post the full schedule of Masses, Services, and times for Holy Week. Our desire is to make it possible for us to not only view, but celebrate this Holy Week together.)
