We are a support group for all women who
need a place to go. We tell our stories with a shared
trust. We pray together and try to deepen our spirituality
to gain strength for the journey ahead. We discuss life
issues, express our feelings in complete confidentiality,
and support each other in difficult times. Most
importantly, we reflect our role and mission in today’s
world.
Although we do not advise, we listen from our
hearts with a non-judgmental attitude, supporting and
encouraging growth and insight. We believe that with
the grace of God, people have within themselves all
they need to discover truth.

Archdiocese has mandated this training for all staff and
parishioners who work directly with children. However, it
is highly recommended for all who are interested in
preventing child abuse. We presently have sessions
