Caring for our homebound brothers and sisters

Fr. Joseph continues his weekly visitations of the homebound. He administers the Sacraments of Penance and Holy Communion, and has been providing our brothers and sisters with calendars and Christmas wafers. The Holy Cross Church gives to each homebound a beautiful poinsettia through the efforts of St. Nicholas Ministry. Please join us in remembering our homebound in prayer. Each Thursday evening we have special healing Mass for the sick and homebound.
