    St. Anne's Guild

    St. Anne's Guild provides an opportunity for women to meet as friends, having a good time as well as providing a service within our parish. Our projects have included tying baby quilts for St. Monica's Project Mother and Child, hosting Café de Christo two or three times a year, selling brooms, annodized aluminum hangers, pecans in November, a December bake sale, and a bean soup mix project. We have provided money for scholarships for the Dominican Republic kids, support for St. Monica's, and other needs that we wish to support.

    St. Anne's Guild meets on the second Wednesday of each month at the church. When we have a project going we meet at 10:00 a.m.; otherwise we meet at 11:00 a.m. and then attend the 11:30 a.m. Eucharist, followed by lunching together.

    Any woman who wishes may join us.
