Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper

Holy Cross celebrates Shrove Tuesday each year with a pancake supper in the Genesis Room. The men of Holy Cross and youth lead this event. There will be a signup sheet in the Genesis Room for those who would like to cook or help with preparations.


Easter Brunch

On Easter Sunday, Holy Cross has a brunch between services. This is a great time to fellowship with one another and celebrate Easter! Parishioners are welcome to bring their favorite brunch food to share. There will be a signup sheet in the Genesis Room.
