Children

God Bless Mila Rose

On Sunday Jan. 26, 2025 The Holy Cross Church welcomed the newest member. Precious girl, Mila Rose Bitondo, daughter of Anthony and Romona received the Sacrament of Baptism at 11 am Holy Mass. We congratulate her parents, proud godparents Mark and Sabrina as well as grandparents, family members and friends on this special occasion.

As God made the covenant with his people so through Baptism, Jesus makes a new and everlasting covenant with his followers. As Jesus won new life for us on the cross, with the symbol of the cross, Mila was marked to receive the new life in the Lord. As the waters of the Red Sea led the people of Israel to freedom so the water of Baptism gave new life and led us to Salvation. Parents, godparents and all members of our parish pledge to help this child to grow in Christian faith.

Christmas Eve Holy Mass with Youth

On Christmas Eve at 4 pm we traditionally celebrated Holy Mass with our youth participation. They wear costumes of Mary, Joseph, shepherds, Three Kings, Angels and a Little Lamb. The youth served as altar servers, read the Holy Scriptures, and sang together with participants of the Mass the Silent Night with lighted candles.

We thank the youth, parents, School of Christian Living teachers, Ms. Natalie and Mr. Paul and all who helped to celebrate the Birth of Jesus in such a joyful and meaningful way.
