The Holy Cross “Sowers”

are beginning a new service project making “Belonging Bags” which will be give tothe local CPS office to use when they remove a child out of a home. When a child is taken from a home that has been deemed unsafe by Child Protective Services (CPS), the child may take only a small amount of toys, clothes, and personal belongings. Sometimes CPS is able to give the child a suitcase but sometimes there isn't time. Many times, the child arrives at a child crisis center, group home, or foster home with literally one or two large trash bags full of their personal items. Donations Would be Appreciated Sturdy fabric that is not too heavy Cording for the drawstrings 1-1/2 yds long This is a great time to join the “Sowers” who meet on Tuesday Mornings.
For more information contact Cindy Lou at 981-2021.
We Need Help in the Parish Office on the Weekends!
To meet our growing needs, we would like to have two people in the office on the weekends.
There are three shifts. Sat. 3-5pm, Sun. 7-10am, Sun. 10-1pm. If you can help out once a month during one of those time periods, we would greatly appreciate the help. You would be starting with an established volunteer and will meet new parishioners as you assist them with their needs.
If you think you would like to help, please contact Cindy Lou in the parish office at 480-981-2021.

Ministry of Hospitality
Ushers Wanted


Our parish continues to have several opportunities available for those parishioners who wish to become an Usher in the Ministry of Hospitality. We have an immediate need for women and younger parishioners. All we ask is that you bring a smile to Church each week and we promise to teach you the rest! Our principles serve as our guide:

Unity Among Peers
Seat Fellow Parishioners
Handling of Collections
Eager to Serve the Lord
Ready to Lend a Hand

Please consider serving the Lord as an Usher and come join our Ministry!

I’d be happy to answer any questions that you may have,
Tony Haddad, Head Usher
(480) 892-2959

Help Needed for Money Collection

We would appreciate additional help in the money counting group, we will provide training to anyone
who is willing to assist. You would be responsible to work approximately 2.5 hours once a month. Those who choose this ministry provide a wonderful service to our parish and while doing so acquire
genuine friendships.

For more information please call (480) 396-0173.


Ministers of Care Needed

There is a strong need for new Ministers of Care at Holy Cross. The boundaries of Holy Cross include three hospitals and over 20 care facilities. Ministers of Care volunteer for pastoral and Eucharistic visits to the sick and dying in homes, care facilities and hospitals. We are especially in need of parishioners who are permanent residents because we are sometimes short-handed when the winter visitors leave for the summer months.
Certification training this year will begin on Saturday, September 20. All interested parishioners are welcome to call Deacon Joe Scaccia at 480-981-2021, Ext. 207.

TWO HOMES FOR SALE
Holy Cross parish now has ownership of two homes in Leisure World that we would like to sell. One is
a patio home, one bedroom, one bath, the other a two bedroom, one and a half bath house. Any interested parishioners should call Kathy Knapp at 480-981-2021.
