Marriage
Begin preparation at least six months in advance. See the Weddings page for more information about being married at Holy Cross.
Baptism
Infant—If you are regularly attending Mass at Holy Cross, contact Father Larry about scheduling the baptism of your baby. Parents who are not attending Mass regularly are asked to establish faith practice in a parish before seeking baptism for their children.
Child—Children who have reached the age of reason (6-7 years old) may enroll in the Rite of Christian Initiation for Children. Continue to the Faith Formation page under Ministries for more information.
Adult—If you are an adult who has not been baptized and you want to become Catholic, you may enter the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults to prepare for Baptism, Confirmation, and First Eucharist. Continue to the Faith Formation page under Ministries for more information. If you have been baptized in another Christian tradition and wish to enter into communion with the Catholic Church, the process is simpler and tailored to your needs. Contact our pastor, Father Larry Voelker, (317) 637-2620 ext. 404; lvoelker@HolyCrossIndy.org.
Confirmation
We have an annual program that prepares youth to be confirmed. If you are a baptized Catholic adult who seeks to be confirmed, our Faith Formation Director can provide more information. Continue to the Faith Formation page under Ministries.
