Belong

We are a community where you BELONG.

We are a welcoming environment where people are known and loved, called by name, and supported in their call to holiness. We offer ministries that focus on hospitality, fellowship, and spiritual growth. We ask that every parishioner be involved in at least one community or service organization.

Originally serving as a mutual benefit society to low-income immigrant Catholics, it developed into a fraternal benefit society dedicated to providing charitable services, promoting Catholic education and Catholic public policy positions, and actively defending Roman Catholicism in various nations.

Ladies Guild

The Mary Our Queen Ladies Guild welcomes all women from our parish to become involved in various spiritual, social and charitable projects. It is a fantastic opportunity to meet other women and offers the flexibility to be involved on many different levels. Several of our members belong to small groups of women with similar interests, called Circles, but there are numerous activities aimed towards those who want to participate in a more flexible fashion. The amount of commitment is completely up to you. Some of the opportunities to get involved with include shopping for Christmas families, preparing baskets for the Marquee fundraiser, working a fish fry, or simply joining our email based programs to provide desserts or volunteers for funeral luncheons. The Ladies Guild is a great way to meet people at Mary Our Queen while helping others in our parish. Contact: Co-Presidents Angie Mills and Jami Woodling; moqladiesguild@gmail.com
