Who we are
Our Mission Statement
Holy Cross Parish, located in the East Forest Park section of Springfield, was founded in 1949 by the Diocese and the people of Holy Name parish. We have from the beginning drawn strength from our church, school and neighborhood. We, as a Spirit-filled, prayerful community of people of all ages, are challenged to live the Gospel of Jesus Christ by knowing, loving, and serving God and each other.
As Roman Catholics, we commit ourselves to grow through celebrating the sacraments, especially the Eucharist; studying the Word; and supporting one another. We are called to reach out to all people, especially the poor and those in need, in a sprit of compassion and love.
Our Parish Goals
Goal One: Create additional opportunities to build community in our Parish, reaching out to involve young adults, singles, families, and seniors.
Goal Two: Increase the number of oportunities for spiritual growth in our Parish.
Goal Three: Provide support and outreach to families and individuals in need.
Each year our parishioners choose "Parish Objectives" in support of these goals at our Parish Assembly. More about that may be found on the Pastoral Council page.

Quote of the Day
Luke 12:24
Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls?

Girl Scouts/Brownies
Girl Scouting is for every girl, everywhere—where today's girls can become tomorrow's leaders. Membership in Girl Scouts is open to girls in grades K- 12; women and men over 18 can join as adult members. Most girls join a local troop or group for fun and friendship, but they also find out about building character and self-esteem and serving their communities—the core qualities of Girl Scouting. In Girl Scouts, girls find a safe place to grow and share new experiences, learn to relate to others, develop values, and contribute to society.
