Holy Cross Church - the Sacraments of our Catholic Faith

The Sacraments of our Faith

"Sacraments are celebrations of Christian tradition, of Christian life and of Christian hope. They share the dimensions of past, present and future that give ordinary celebrations meaning. But sacraments are no ordinary celebrations. They are special occasions for experiencing God's saving presence" - AmericanCatholic.org

There are seven sacraments: Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick, Marriage and Holy Orders.

Holy Cross celebrates the Sacrament of Reconciliation each Saturday from 4:30 to 5:00 p.m.
Family membership of four months is required for the Sacrament of Baptism
Six month membership is required for the Sacrament of Marriage.

Please contact the parish office at 814.474.2605 for more information.
