All women of St. Mark’s are invited to attend the third quarterly meeting of the St. Paul Deanery Council of Catholic Women to be held at Nativity of Our Lord, 1900 Stanford Ave, St. Paul, on Thursday, February 20.
Registration and coffee begin at 8:15 AM. A business meeting starts at 9 AM, and is followed by speaker Katherine Wojter, executive Director of Mary’s Pence. Mass at noon, followed by lunch.
The mission of Mary’s Pence is to invest in women across America by funding community initiatives and fostering collaboration to create social change. In the past 33 years they have given over 1.5 million dollars in small grants to over 500 women’s projects throughout the Americas. Bring a purse to donate for a purse sale (free will offering); funds to be donated to the Purse Program for religious vocations coordinated by NCCW.
St. Mark’s CCW will cover the cost for all St. Mark’s women attending. Phone reservations to Nancy at 651-644-2260 by Monday, February 17. Since the meeting is being held at our neighboring church, this is a great opportunity to experience fellowship and prayer with
members of the Council of Catholic Women.
