Announcements
Holy Cross Episcopal Church joyfully announces the calling of The Rev. Jonathan Chesney as its new Rector.
​
After a very thoughtful and prayerful search process, the Vestry and Discernment Committee are delighted to welcome The Rev. Jonathan Chesney to lead our parish into its next chapter of worship, service, and spiritual growth. Fr. Chesney brings a deep love for the Gospel, a heart for pastoral care, and a strong commitment to community engagement and discipleship.
​
Fr. Chesney will be joining us from the parish of the Holy Communion in Memphis, TN where he serves as Senior Associate Rector.
​
The Chesneys plan to join us on June 1, with Fr. Chesney’s first Sunday celebrating with us being June 7. Please make plans to join us. More details about his first Sunday and opportunities to greet them will be shared soon.
​
Welcome Home to Holy Cross, Chesney family! We’re so glad you’re joining us!
