Fruits of Holy Cross

Fruits of Holy Cross shares the good news of the ministries of the Sisters of the Holy Cross. These ministries are not merely the fruits of the sisters’ labors, nor are they merely the offspring of the seeds of faith planted by our founder Blessed Basil Anthony Moreau. While those are two major factors in nourishing our “fruit,” it is also true that those seeds have been watered by our many prayer partners, donors and benefactors—by you. As we thank you for your support, we also acknowledge the Holy Spirit in helping our ministries to flourish.
