TRADITION HIGHLIGHT: Sharing Easter Bread

For several years now, parishioners have brought their homelands' traditional seasonal bread to be blessed at the end of Easter Sunday Mass at Holy Cross Church before sharing it at the coffee social.

If the place where you're from has a traditional bread at Eastertime, you're invited to share it with our fellow parishioners. Bring a loaf to the 10:30 a.m. Easter Sunday Mass on April 5, 2026, at Holy Cross, where it will be blessed at the end of the service and then brought downstairs to the Parish Hall for people to sample at the after-Mass coffee social.
