Why Invest in Holy Cross?

Time, place and circumstances differ, but the mission of the Congregation of Holy Cross remains urgently the same: to proclaim the Kingdom of God.

The Priests of Holy Cross, Indiana Province, are determined ambassadors of Christ’s message. We commit ourselves, every day, to the mission of Holy Cross and to the Church so that we can proactively serve others. We recognize our existence is directly related to the needs of this world, for if each life accepted Christ and lived as Christ calls us to live, our ministry and community would be drastically different. Until God’s Kingdom is realized, there are millions of brothers and sisters who will need what we can offer – hope, peace, salvation, love - the living message of Christ.

We invite those who profess a life in Christ to share, as good stewards, their time, talents and treasure with us so that together the Kingdom of God may come to fruition.

Specifically, in service to the world, our future efforts must concentrate on:

Formation
Drawing new vocations to the Church and to Holy Cross and providing for the best possible education.
Education
Being witnesses of Christ through secondary education assignments.
Parishes
Building local faith communities through our unique charism of evangelization, education and community.
Care for the Poor
Preferential commitment we make to the poor and oppressed, exemplified in all our ministries.
Foreign Missions
Proactively bringing Christ’s message to nations where the need for hope, peace, salvation and love is most prevalent.
Care for our Elder Brothers
insuring those who have committed their life to Christ and have invested their adult lives in that service receive the best, most compassionate, care possible.
