THE SWA MEMBERSHIP RECRUITMENT IS UNDERWAY

We are looking for more Women from the Parish to join our group. If you are reading this newsletter and are not a member of the Snows Women’s Auxilary, please consider joining us! If you are a member, please consider bringing another Woman Parishioner to our next meeting with the hope that they will join our group.

This ministry of Our Lady of the Snows church began in November, 2012 and grew out of a small group of ladies who were wives of Knights of Columbus members. The SWA has since grown to approximately 100 ladies who gather to socialize, share their faith and participate in lots of fun activities while raising funds to support our church, school and various local charitable organizations.
