Holy Spirit Women’s Council

The Holy Spirit Women’s Council’s mission is developed from the National Council of Catholic Women, which “acts through its members to support, empower and educate all Catholic women in spirituality, leadership and service.”

We are an informal group which includes all women of the parish who are 18 years and older. We stay very busy having fun, praying, working, and serving together. We pay no dues and have no monthly meetings. Our goal is to grow spiritually, make friends, and serve our parish and community!

Please come join us, for whatever you’re able to do. Sometimes, you just need to get out of the house and be amongst friends!
