St. Thomas Women’s Auxiliary

Description

What we do: While STWA is mostly known for our Bake Sales, we do so much more.  Our monthly meeting are held usually in the Social Hall, during the first hour we make plans to host activities that are designed to promote community and socialization for the parish like our Evening of Bingo, Father/Daughter Dance, and Casino Night.   

Money earned from the activities are then returned to the church in the form of gifts such as Altar Linens or financial assistance. 

We Adopt-a-Family at Christmas, help Feed the Hungry and provide meals for the Night Shelter.  With the help of The Knights of Columbus, we host Breakfast with Santa.  We support St. Vincent de Paul, Our Lady of Perpetual Hope (Hospice for Cancer patients), and other ministries within the parish.  We host Days of Reflection, and have members evenings out.  In January of 2020 we held a Mystery Dinner for our STWA group at a local restaurant.

The laughter and fun still remains within each of us as a happy memory. Last year we had the pleasure to attend a Cir de solei show and it was an unforgettable evening where we came closer to each sister that attended the event. We also also have a Theater Group and many more activities to promote sisterhood.

Commitment

Expect to commite approximately 2 hours a month.

Our monthly meeting are held usually in the Social Hall. We meet once a month, September to June, the second Monday of the month, from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m.  On the last Wednesday of the month, we have a program called  “Seeking God’s Peace Together” – where we read and explore passages in the Bible.  We host monthly “A Second Cup of Coffee with Joyce”, a social chit chat group.
