Leadership Transition at Holy Cross Parish
We would like to share with our parish community that Abbot Gary will be concluding his time as Pastor of Holy Cross Parish on June 30.
We are deeply grateful for Abbot Gary’s eight years of service to our parish. He has been a steady and caring presence here at Holy Cross, and his impact on our community will not be forgotten. He will be greatly missed. We are thankful for the many ways he has walked with our parish over the years.
We are also pleased to share that Abbot Dane Radecki will be returning to Holy Cross Parish and will begin his role as Parish Administrator on July 1. We look forward to welcoming him as we begin this next chapter together.
Our parish has formed a transition team and is committed to making this transition as smooth as possible for our parish family.
Please keep Abbot Gary and Abbot Dane in your prayers during this time.

Senior Gathering
Holy Cross is excited to introduce a new event just for the senior members of our parish community—those who are truly young at heart.
This gathering is open to anyone age 55+, and we hope you can join us.
We will begin with a special blessing at Mass, followed by a continental breakfast and time together.
We are honored to welcome our featured speaker, Jeanne Stangel, President & CEO of Curative Connections.
Jeanne is an innovative leader and engaging speaker who is passionate about improving the quality of life for seniors in our community. Curative Connections offers a wide range of services, including healthy aging support, memory care, cognitive and life skills programs, caregiver support, and transportation services.

Welcome to Our Parish!
For 172 years, Holy Cross has served the good people of the Bay Settlement area. What was once a rural farming community is now a sprawling suburban neighborhood and our parishioners mirror those changes. The parish was designated a Norbertine parish in 1904 and as such, we strive to embody the values of the Norbertine Order. These deep-rooted values include trust, sincerity and respect for others; deepening our spiritual roots while being agents for positive change; and embracing community, being deeply engaged in the place you call home.
Holy Cross is a vibrant, growing Catholic community where you are encouraged to deepen your faith, connect with others, share your talents, and make a difference. The Holy Cross family is here to support you along your journey and provide opportunities for you to grow in grace, faith and love. We are committed to helping each other discover God's plan for each of us. For some that means engaging in meaningful studies and discussion about their Catholic faith. Others might seek the comfort of a close-knit prayer group. Others may want to deepen their connections by interacting in social groups and activities or by service to the larger community. Together we can make these moments happen.
Abbot Gary Neville, O. Praem. Pastor
