St. Monica is the patron saint of mothers, whose unceasing prayers led to her son, St. Augustine, who had lived away from the teachings of the church as a youth, becoming a doctor of the church. This group is open to anyone wishing to join in prayer for people who have left the Catholic Church.
The first meeting of The St. Monica Ministry will meet in church on Wednesday, September 6th following the 9 am Mass. The meeting will include the praying of the Rosary as well as specific prayers for those who have been away from the faith. If you are unable to join this group in prayer, there will be a box near the book of remembrance in the back of the main body of church to add the first name of your loved one who has fallen away from the practice of the faith and sacraments.
The St. Monica Ministry will meet the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of every month following Mass.
