Lord, this is the people that

longs to see your face.

"14

if my people who are called by my name

humble themselves, pray, seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways,

then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their

land. 15

Now my eyes will be open and my ears at-tentive to the prayer that

is made in this place." 2 Chronicles 7:14-15

In an effort to maintain a safe and sanitized environment for all of our guests, we at Holy Cross are continuing to evaluate and modify safety guidelines as necessary. We have decided to return to our regular method of distributing Holy Communion beginning this weekend, October 31st—November 1st. The deacons and EMHCs will be standing at the top of the aisles as before. There is one change and it will pertain to those sitting in the pews along the sides of the church. For you folks, please exit your pew so that you are walking up to receive Communion in the aisle that is along the wall. Once you receive Communion please re-secure your mask, and return down the middle aisles. By doing this everyone will be moving in the same direction. We remind everyone of the importance of keeping a 6’ - 8’ separation as you exit and return to your pew. We appreciate your cooperation as we continue our efforts to maintain our House of Worship. Your Liturgy Team

Men go abroad to wonder

at the heights of mountains,

at the huge waves of the sea,

at the long courses of the rivers,

at the vast compass of the ocean,

at the circular motions of the stars,

and they pass by themselves

without wondering.

St. Augustine

A song you might listen to this weekend, as we celebrate the

Solemnity of All Saints, is

'By All Your Saints Still Striving.'

The tune was written in the 17th century by German composer

Melchior Teschner. He wrote several hymn melodies, but this is

arguably his most well-known tune. In our hymnals, the way that

the text is structured allows for several alternate options to be

substituted in place of the second verse. Each alternate verse

focuses on the life and attributes of a particular saint -

St. Joseph, St. John, St. Matthew, St. Peter, to name a few.

These verses are intended to be sung on their respective feast

days. Cecilia

Pray, Ponder and Peace, from our Pastoral Minister Theresa McLaury
