Holy Cross Parish, Ipswich, celebrated their Patronal Feast Day, the Exaltation of the Holy Cross, September 15. Parishioners had the opportunity to venerate a relic of the True Cross (photo left). They prayed a public rosary to honor Our Lady of Sorrows (photo below), and a Mass was celebrated for the soul of Fr. Frederick Boorman, pastor of Holy Cross Parish from 1911-1947. Fr. Timothy Smith presided at the Mass with accompaniment by the Holy Cross Choir and altar servers. (Photos by Lynn Thares)
