” Alms giving is a worthy offering in the sight of the Most High for all who practice it.” Tobit 4:11 Work is underway for Phase 2, and our Holy Cross family continues to grow. We hope these signs of
progress are enough to deem pledging time, talents, and treasure, to the GIFT Campaign, a worthy
offering for those parishioners who have not done so yet. The Most High is with us. Won’t you join in
with your financial support to help us reach our goal of $4,000,000 by the feast of Holy Cross? We
are at $ 3,100,945 as of October 7, 2018. Please do what you can!
Pledges can be made online at www.holycrosscc.org/GIFT by following the link on our website to
the GIFT campaign. Donations can be placed in the GIFT campaign envelopes in the pews and
placed in the collections basket or GIFT box in the back of the church.
Give In Faith Today to share.
Thank you.
