Independent Catholicism … A different kind of Catholic!
We at Holy Cross Catholic Church are a Sacramental Christian church sharing the riches of the Catholic Christian tradition inclusively with all. We proclaim the faith of the Nicene Creed: Jesus Christ is fully God and fully human, Jesus Christ saves humankind through His death and resurrection. Our faith focuses on the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments, interpreting them in light of the tradition of the Church, human reason, and the experience of Christians throughout the ages.
We celebrate the Seven Sacraments (Baptism, Eucharist, Confirmation, Marriage, Ordination, Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick). We preserve the Apostolic Succession of our clergy.
We welcome ALL people to worship with us, inviting all baptized Christians to receive Holy Communion.
Prayer is a central part of the daily lives of our clergy, and laity. We celebrate the liturgy (Mass) each Sunday as well as seasonal Prayer Services.
The people of the Independent Catholic Christian Church share a strong common life, even as we are widely dispersed. We do not believe that it is possible to be a "solitary Christian", but instead believe that we are called to work together as the Church, “the Body of Christ”, in its various expressions, so that we may grow in our discipleship to Christ. We are also called to bear witness to Christ and work for peace and justice in the larger world. We invite you to join us in our journey of Christian life.
