Church
Father Moreau planted the roots of the family of Holy Cross deeply within the church, placing us at the service of the local and universal church. Through this placement and rootedness, we have become an international and multicultural apostolic religious family.
“For myself, as long as blood runs in my veins and my heart beats in my breast, I shall bless the Lord for having inspired the (Vicar of Christ) with so touching an interest in Notre-Dame-de-Sainte-Croix (Our Lady of Holy Cross) and its work .... I thank God also that the Sacred Congregation of Propaganda has sufficient confidence in our zeal to summon us to the apostolate of the foreign missions ....” (Circular Letter 54)
