Parish News for Holy Cross Day
This Sunday we celebrate the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. The Gospel reading contains one of the most famous verses in the Bible: ‘For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.’ This is the good news at the heart of our faith.
