Sacraments

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.

The Sacrament of Baptism-Confirmation is the foundation of our Christian faith, is a gateway to new life in the Spirit, and the door that gives access to other sacraments. Through this sacrament we are regenerated and incorporated into Christ’s body – His Church
