The Holy Name of Jesus Council of Catholic Women (CCW) was founded at the beginning of our parish, by a small group of women who shared a commitment to our faith and the moral values of God and our Catholic Church. They are dedicated to serving the Church, our community and those less fortunate around the world. Today, the members of CCW are still dedicated to those same values: spirituality, leadership and service. We mentor each other as we go through the various stages of life and along the way make great friends and share many new experiences.
If you are looking for a place to be with other women of similar interest, to make new friends, to share new experiences and use your special skills and talents effectively in service to the church and the larger community, become an active member. CCW meets the second Wednesday of each month at 7:00 p.m. from September through June in the Social Hall. All ladies of the parish are welcome! We hope to see you at our next meeting or event.
