Bringing Hope Across Borders
Founded in 1923, the Holy Cross Mission Center supports the international missions of the Congregation of Holy Cross in parish ministry, education, healthcare, and outreach services to communities in need.
Our work is anchored by our faith in Christ, inspired by the apostolic missionary vision of Blessed Basil Moreau, and responsive to the ministries of Holy Cross around the world.
We align the generosity of our benefactors and institutional partners with the priorities of Holy Cross leadership to carry forth the international ministries of the Congregation of Holy Cross.
