Our Mission Statement

The mission of Holy Cross Associates (HCA) is to engage lay people to grow in the life of Christ through Christian service, spirituality, simple living and community. Founded by the Congregation of Holy Cross, Holy Cross Associates is designed to carry out the mission of the Gospel as expressed in the teaching example of Christ and in the social teachings of the Catholic Church. By forming post-collegiate lay people in the practice of Christian discipleship, this program serves as a vital part of the life and work of Holy Cross, and thus as leaven in the Church and in the world.
