Hurley Workweek 2010
This past June, forty-eight volunteers participated in the 9th Hurley Workweek Mission.  All of our area Catholic parishes were represented including Holy Cross, St. Thomas More, St. Francis of Assisi, Holy Name of Mary, St. Victoria and Blessed Sacrament in Harrisonburg.  Twenty-three of the participants had close ties to Holy Cross School as students, graduates, former students, parents, grandparents, and school board members.
