Welcome!
Dear Friends,
Whoever you are, and wherever you find yourself on the journey of faith, you are welcome here at Holy Cross as you are.
We say this every Sunday, and we mean it. In our time, place, and culture, community is hard to come by, and neighborhood is becoming a concept of the past. It is easier and easier to become isolated, and to feel stuck that way.
Holy Cross is a church committed to radical hospitality in the model of Jesus, making strangers into friends. Even more, we are convinced that a life lived in community, given for others, is a life fully lived, and intended by God for all people.
I invite you to find your way to the center of our life of worship and service. Explore our HC in the Community link to find out more about how we are seeking to live the Christian life in our larger Fairfax community and beyond, and how you can get involved. If you prefer a bit of structure, I encourage you to attend the newcomer class (called Life at Holy Cross) in the fall or spring, followed by one or more Wednesday evening Foundation classes that catch your eye—or simply poke around the website and view the broad spectrum of opportunities to deepen your life.
Please join us for worship on Sundays at 8 a.m., 9 a.m., or 10:45 a.m. (July and August: 8 a.m. and 10 a.m.); or Wednesdays at noon for a beautiful, simple Eucharist service. We look forward to welcoming you in person.
Faithfully,
Wes Smedley
Rector
