Since the beginning, Holy Cross parishioners have sought to express their faith in creative and concrete ways. There has been openness to a variety of liturgical expressions and ministries. A relationship was entered into with a Barrio El Recreo in Managua, Nicaragua about 1981 and has resulted in a number of supportive projects and visits by parishioners. Today regular email messages keep the community abreast of what is happening in our ‘sister community’.
Holy Cross parish was also innovative by installing an elevator and making the facility accessible to people with disabilities. Under the parish leadership, three homes (1982, ‘85 and ‘91) were formed to welcome those previously institutionalized persons.
The many activities of the parish have made it necessary to convert the original rectory into meeting rooms and office space and to purchase a residence for the pastor serving the parish.
