Our Purpose:

Growing in faith is the work of the Church. It was the heart of Jesus' own mission to
help us human beings connect with our divine source, to help us age with goodness,
wisdom and peace, and to help us build and live in the reign of God. The Church seeks
to help us live with purpose and meaning by connecting what we believe with how we
live, and how we live in community. Thus, we may connect our own inborn hunger for
God with our tendency to attempt to satisfy that hunger in ways that do not lead to
meaning, these alternate paths may include greed, seeking power, or overuse of earth's
resources. The way of faith, on the other hand, leads us to find the courage to allow God
to satisfy our hunger and to guide our hearts and lives. We may connect ourselves to
those within our households, but also in our neighborhoods and world. We may connect
questions we have about the tough moral decisions we face with the guidance of
Scripture and the Church and the wisdom or our own elders.

Simply put, we are striving to become a women's social group united in faith.

Our meeting dates for 2019-2020 are:
     September 21, October 26,
November 23 January 11,
February 8, March 7, April 4,
May 9 & June 13

The Danger of a Single Story Saturday, October 26, 2019, 8:00 am, Heritage Hall

As Catholics, loving others as ourselves is paramount to our faith. Many of us consider ourselves to be open-minded and accepting of others, but, are we actually closed-minded in our open-mindedness? Join M&Ms as we explore The Danger of a Single Story via the TED talk of Nigerian author Chimamanda Adichie.
 What happens when we only hear a single story or one perspective?
 How does the storyteller make a difference?
 How does our faith help us navigate the dangers of a single story?
Join us on Saturday October 26th 8 am in Heritage Hall for a fascinating discussion.
