You are invited to join St. Monica's Society!
The St. Monica’s Society was formed as a support group for mothers just like you. Our mission is to welcome families with school-age children (elementary through college) into the parish, to provide an opportunity for families to gather for social, educational, service and spiritual growth while supporting the community around us.
“Do not fear, I am with you. Do not be afraid, I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with My victorious right hand.” ~ Isaiah 41:10
We understand the busy life of a mom with school-age children and we know your time is precious. Come as you are available and let us nourish your mind, body and soul.
