And, of course, Holy Cross continues to offer lunch to its neighbors on the last Sunday of each month. Betty’s Basement, a growing local legend, is a thrift shop that offers everything from clothing to bedding at bargain prices. The Men’s Breakfast on the second Sunday of each month, after the 8 AM service, offers an opportunity for great food, conversation, and laughter. And don’t forget the annual Holiday Boutique in November, attracting artisans and crafters from all over NJ.
Holy Cross continues its tradition of an open door and open heart policy, welcoming all neighbors, near and far. Tie a ribbon on the Tree of Hope. Weave a hope on the Prayer Loom. Or just come and enjoy the fellowship, the music, the feasting, and the laughter.
