Sanctuary Society

Meetings are held on the 4th Monday of the month after the 12:05 p.m. Mass.  We meet September, October, November, April and May.  We are also invited to attend the Vicariate Meetings for the DCCW (Diocesan Council of Catholic Women) in the Fall and Spring.  There are also extra outings available when possible.  Each year this group culminates with a spring luncheon with local entertainment.

The Sanctuary Society has one major fund-raiser.  It is a combination of raffle and bake sale.  The event takes place on the first weekend December, with raffle sales beginning a couple of weeks before.  The proceeds from this sale are used to purchase items for the “sanctuary”.  They purchase the hosts and wine, red candles for the sanctuary, charcoal, clean vestments, and purchase other small items needed in the sacristy.  They have also helped to purchase tables and chairs for the Community Center as well.

All women are welcome to the meetings.  Check the bulletin for a list of upcoming dates.
