Women’s Auxiliary
We warmly welcome ALL women who desire to serve our church community and beyond, while growing in faith and building friendship with other women.
We helped serve during the Knights of Columbus Fish Fry.
We sell mums in fall for an annual fundraiser so that we can provide assistance to parish ministries.
