Summary
The February 1960 parish notice marked the year as Holy Cross’s centennial and announced a celebration planned for August. It also reported that a “Home for Christmas in ’60” project was still only in discussion.
Evidence and limits
The notice does not give the parish’s founding day, a centennial program, or evidence that either planned activity was completed. The centennial date is kept as the newspaper’s assertion rather than independently recalculated.
Open questions
- Is there a parish history or August 1960 issue documenting the centennial celebration?
- What did “Home for Christmas in ’60” mean, and was it realized?
