Celebrating the Year of Saint Joseph
Marking 150 Years of St. Joseph as Patron of the Universal Church
(December 8, 2020 to December 8, 2021)
The Memorare to Saint Joseph
Remember, O most pure spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary, my great protector, Saint Joseph, that no one ever had recourse to your protection, or implored your aid without obtaining relief. Confiding therefore in your goodness, I come before you. Do not turn down my petitions, foster father of the Redeemer, but graciously receive them. Amen.

Dear Friends,
What a year 2020 has been! We hope and pray that 2021 will be indeed be far different – for the better! The support and generosity of Holy Cross parishioners is and has been truly uplifting! Know that you and your intentions are always remembered in the Masses that I celebrate and the prayers that I offer everyday! Please continue to remember Holy Cross in your planned giving. Parish operations and services depend upon the weekly offerings. Electronic giving always remains an option and I am grateful to those who have chosen this. Please click the icon on the bottom of this page for more information. Weekly envelopes, of course, may still be mailed-in or dropped-off. I am grateful and inspired by our many wonderful Holy Cross parishioners and Holy Cross School students and faculty! Let’s pray for a better New Year as we renew our trust in God and entrust ourselves anew under the protection and care of Our Lady of the Holy Cross!
Peace!
Fr. Wilson
