The recent Holy Cross Respect Life Baby Shower was an overwhelmling success!

Our Holy Cross parishioners continue to impress with their gracious, giving natures. The members of our Respect Life ministry and Maggie’s Place want to offer our  heartfelt  thanks for your generous donations to our 2025 Baby Shower drive.
