Church of the Holy Cross

Share a story

"We at the Episcopal Church of the Holy Cross are steadfast in our commitment to growth.  We bear witness to the love of Christ through prayer, acceptance, service, outreach and fellowship.  We are committed to God as we join together in our journey of faith and seek to educate and nourish all of God’s children it live the Gospel.  Welcome to our Pilgrimage."

Our Holy Cross congregation is far, far more than a group of people who worship, work, and share fellowship with one another.  We refer to ourselves as the Holy Cross family.  We are diverse and come in all shapes, backgrounds, ages, and colors.  We have diverse talents and interests and points of view.  Rest assured, however, that while we are certainly not "The Brady Bunch", there is nothing reminiscent of "Everybody Loves Raymond" about us.  We are family in the best sense of the word.

When we congregate, we are aware that everyone around us has worries and fears, griefs and joys, endings and beginnings.  None of us ever feels alone because each of us feels the comfort of being surrounded by warm hearts and willing hands.

It is an enormous blessing to know that we can count on the unconditional support of any number of people.  If someone needs transport, if someone needs counsel, if someone needs a quiet shoulder to lean on, if someone needs a recipe, if someone needs to plan an event...well, there are always Holy Cross family members we can rely on.  We celebrate and comfort one another.
