Holy Cross Parish was a Roman Catholic parish designated for Polish immigrants in Fall River, Massachusetts, United States.

Founded in 1916, it was one of the Polish-American Roman Catholic parishes in New England in the Diocese of Fall River and was staffed for many years by the Conventual Franciscans.

The parish merged with SS Peter & Paul Parish in 1997, creating a new community known as SS Peter & Paul Parish at Holy Cross Church.[1]
