"Holy Cross" is the name of the church in Minneapolis I once belonged to.
It is also September 14.
But how strange! "Holy cross"? What an impossible combination is "holy" and

It's Not Grace only for Sundays
Before my family moved from Oshkosh, Wisconsin, we lived on Merritt Avenue.
A well-indoctrinated parishioner once remarked, "Mighty odd for a Lutheran

a street in Appleton, Wisconsin, we live on Lawe! At least my call is to a
Lutheran Church named Grace.
