New Holy Cross Pictorial Directory

We are excited to announce that we have made a commitment to create a new parish pictorial directory to celebrate our church family and preserve this special time in the life and ministry of our parish! Lifetouch Church Directories and Portraits has been selected for the photography.

For your convenience, all photography and portrait viewing will take place in the CECC facility. There is no sitting fee required to have your portrait taken and you will receive a complimentary 8”x10” portrait and the new parish directory!

On the day of the day of the sitting, you will take a variety of poses and then view your images electronically immediately following your session. One pose is selected for the directory, and then you have the opportunity to purchase additional portraits at attractive prices.

Sitting dates in June:

  • June 5th -9th
  • June 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th, 16th
  • June 19th, 20th, 21st, 22nd, 23rd

Any Holy Cross parish or school groups planning to use the church/CECC facility for the next fiscal year (July 1, 2012 - June 30, 2013) must fill out facility request and room setup forms. Please do not assume that because your group or committee was on the calendar this year that you automatically have the same arrangements next year.

A list of times is located on the table by the Adoration Chapel. If you can help, contact Patricia Roatch at (630) 879-4750 x-110 or email.
