The Mainspring House chef has requested we join him in coordinating his Saturday Night Pasta & Protein Meal.

The Children's Choir is looking for new members!
Any child from Grade 1 or older is invited to join. We sing weekly at the 8:30 am liturgy. This is an excellent opportunity for our young singers and instrumentalists to participate in mass. Please contact Chris at ciannitelli@holycrosseaston.org.
