Altar Rosary Society
The Society has a deep devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Each meeting begins with the recitation of the Rosary. The organization is open
to all confirmed Catholic women of the parish. At the monthly meetings, the
members come together to address the needs of the parish and decide together what
service projects they wish to do. Annually, the group provides refreshments for
the First Eucharist candidates' reception and host the May Crowning. The Altar
Rosary Society is a wonderful opportunity for the women of the parish to support
one another, increase their devotion to Mary, and perform service projects in the
parish. Members recite the Rosary prior to and attend the Mass on a rotating basis
on the 3rd Sunday of the month.
