The most wonderful time of the year is almost upon us, and you’re invited to experience the joy, light and community of Christmas with Saint Francis!

Formerly known as Christmas at Our House, the new name of this event reflects how this beloved tradition has grown and evolved over the years. With our students taking on leadership roles alongside our Lancer Family Connection parent leaders, this celebration has become a true reflection of the warmth and spirit of our community.

In this season of togetherness, our Holy Cross family gathers to connect, reflect and celebrate what truly matters– our faith, fellowship and the spirit of giving. From twinkling lights to cherished traditions, Christmas with Saint Francis is a joyful two-day community celebration. 

We look forward to you and your family joining us on Friday, December 5 from 5:00 - 9:00 p.m. and on Saturday, December 6 from 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.
