A pet memorial service will take place following the 10:30 service Sunday, March 13. Attendees are asked to gather in the reception room following the service; we'll walk to the Saint Francis Garden together as soon as the reception line clears. You are welcome (though by no means required) to bring a photo of your pet and/or a short written story or letter about them for inclusion in our St. Francis Garden memorial book. Questions? Please contact Rev. Erin+. 
Holy Cross members and friends have the opportunity to provide a meal and/or dessert for our youth group. We'll meet most Wednesdays during the school year. Each meeting includes a *socially distanced* dinner. You may cook/bake or purchase already prepared food. Please plan to feed (or in the case of dessert, treat) twelve. Monetary donations are also welcome. Youth dinners currently cost about fifty dollars a week but donations in any amount are accepted and appreciated. To sign up, please visit bit.ly/hcteensspring22.

This is a small group meeting on Monday mornings for about 1 hour starting at 11am at the church. We discuss the Gospel scheduled for the upcoming Sunday, the historical environment, what it means to us and how we can apply it to our daily lives. Then some of us have lunch together. This is an opportunity for fellowship, meaningful conversation and to learn something. Please come check us out. For more information please contact Dan Donboch at 864-905-7498 or email imjdd@hotmail.com or just show up on Monday morning.

The media team is in need of a few more volunteers. No experience needed. All training and support provided. Reserved seating guaranteed. To serve on media team all that a person needs to be able to do is sit in the booth, follow along with the service, and click the arrow on the keyboard to advance the slide at the appropriate time. The sound board is not that much more difficult. One only had to push the labeled button to queue the correct microphone. All are welcome and training will be provided. If you feel this is a ministry you would like to participate in, please see Lynda Clark, Mike McAllister, or any member of the media team.
The bulletin for every Sunday will be sent out via Eblast on Fridays.
