“You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hidden. No one after lighting a lamp puts it under the bushel basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5: 14-16)
At Holy Cross church we endeavour to be a light in the darkness for the people of Daventry. We want to help our neighbours in practical ways and we want to encourage others to discover the love God has for each and every one of us. Please do come and visit us, at the church, or feel free to contact us via our contact page , by Facebook or by telephone.
We look forward to meeting you soon.
O God the source of all light,
May we bring light to your world,
Drawing out your presence in the
everyday.
As we offer you our lives,
Shape us as disciples,
That we may reveal your goodness
And reflect your light.
In Jesus name,
Amen.
Coronavirus 19
The church is open and life is getting back to normal. However the PCC have decided that we will keep the distancing of every other pew, the hand sanitiser being available, and would encourage you to keep using this for the foreseeable future.
Masks being worn are down to the individual and there are some masks at church if you change your mind.
We are also keeping the booking system, as we are not fully back to being able to do things the way we did before and with the number of cases increasing so we can advise people if there is an issue.
If you have any concerns please feel free to contact us.
A Prayer for us all at this time.
Keep us, good Lord,
Under the shadow of your mercy.
Sustain and support the anxious,
be with those who care for the sick,
and lift up all who are brought low;
that we may find comfort
knowing that nothing can separate
us from your love
in Jesus Christ our Lord
Amen.

A Prayer for Growth
God of mission, who alone brings growth to your Church,
send your Holy Spirit to give vision to our planning,
wisdom to our actions, joy to our worship,
and power to our witness.
Help our church to grow in numbers,
in spiritual commitment to you,
and in service to our local community.
Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
