This group includes all women of St. Mary-Holy Cross Parish who are committed to being of service to the Church through volunteer and social activities. Any member of a community is entitled to privileges, but is also expected to contribute to the benefit of others, as well. The primary service performed by the Altar and Rosary Society is to provide food for and serve funeral dinners.

Work of Our Hands

Work of our Hands (WOOH) was created through our Parish Social Concerns Committee at St. Mary-Holy Cross to give parishioners another way to build community and solidarity; to introduce you to artisans, farmers, service-providers, hobbyists, and others in our parish who are willing to provide their services or goods for a fee; and to give those who would provide such services and goods a way of letting others know about it.
Work Of Our Hands November 2 & 3, 2024
Your opportunity to purchase early Christmas gifts from parishioners at our annual Work of Our Hands (WOOH) festival will be November 2 & 3. Come visit with service providers, hobbyists, and those willing to provide their services or goods for a fee or barter in the parish social hall 3:00 – 4:45pm. Nov. 2 and after both weekend Masses at St. Mary. Several popular former exhibitors and five new ones will be on hand. And, it’s fun to share in fellowship over wine and cheese after Mass Nov. 2 or coffee and donuts Nov. 3.
