Women's Council
-
Charity is the form, mover, mother and root of all the virtues. -St. Thomas Aquinas
The Women’s Council is open to all women parishioners who put faith into action through leadership, fellowship and service. This outreach ministry provides a forum for women of St. Bartholomew Church to build friendships, grow spiritually, and organize fundraising efforts.
Our volunteer work culminates in donations to many noteworthy local charities serving those in need, such as women and children who suffer domestic violence and children experiencing physical and emotional abuse.
The Women’s Council meetings are held the first Monday of the month from Noon-1:30 pm in the Parish Hall from September through June (Except holidays).
Our meetings are an opportunity to gather for fellowship, lunch, and planning our fundraising events. Meetings also feature engaging guest speakers.
