The Altar & Rosary Society is one of the oldest organizations in the Parish. It is comprised of women and men who join in serving our Church parish. Our main focus is to foster in its members an ardent devotion, reverence and filial love towards Jesus Christ and thereby assist them in becoming good Catholics bent upon sanctifying themselves and their neighbors; to promote public worship; to give edification by receiving Holy Communion monthly in a body, thereby increasing spiritual benefits; and to participate in all Parish activities recommended by the Pastor. To promote awareness of the Rosary; to care for immediate needs of the altar and to supply the needs of the sacristy.

Additionally, the Altar & Rosary Society is the philanthropic arm for donating to a variety of projects and causes that promotes our Catholic Christian beliefs to make positive differences in families, schools, and communities.

We hold special events such as an Annual White Elephant Sale combined with a Breakfast and Bake Sale in November, Woven Palm Crosses for Palm Sunday, Carnation Sale for Right to Life on Mother’s Day, and a Shoe Box Shower for women and children in shelters in March and a Baby Clothes Drive for Birthright. The membership monies, along with donations, and fundraisers have enabled us to recently purchase chalices for the Eucharistic Ministers use at the Masses.

We meet on the second Sunday of the month after the 9:30a.m.Mass in the banquet hall.
