Worship Space and Decor

Our Worship space in church is a place of sacred encounter with God and is expressive of our Holy Cross community as we gather to pray together, to hear the Word of God, to receive the Sacraments, and to celebrate the Eucharist.

The work of decor and care of our Worship space is a blending of service by the Ladies Altar Sodality and dedicated individuals. We welcome anyone with a love for the celebration of the Eucharist.
