Early in my Priesthood, I learned that without the women, you do not have a successful parish.
We have over the decades been blessed with sincere, dutiful women who have always 'stepped up to the plate' for the welfare of this parish.
The Ladies Guild of St. George's is a integral part of the life of this Church. They have gone way past just 'cooking and cleaning.'
The Ladies Guild put on functions to benefit the parish; help in the Sunday School, sing in the Choir, usher, run the Church bookstore, and so much more.
They are always seeking other women to 'join the team.'
Ladies Guild President, Gabrielle Stevens is such a driving force in the life of St. George's as are all of the wonderful Ladies who are a part of this parish.
LADIES GUILD LUNCHEON that was held on Saturday, September 11th was very successful! The officers for the new year are: President-GABRIELLE STEVENS; Vice-President-RACHELLE HOOD; Secretary-MARIANNE VANNESS and Treasurer-LEXI FRANK. The ladies spent much time in discussion on increasing the spirituality of all members and in this regard have instituted a 'e mail circuit of prayer.'
If you would like to be part of the circle or just have a prayer request posted, please contact Fr. John at jhamatie@aol.com.
The Ladies are also seeking home made ethnic pastries to be sold at their booth at the upcoming Fiesta-in-the-Park, November 6th and 7th. If you would like to participate, again please e mail Fr. John.
The next luncheon for the ladies will be held, please God on Saturday, October 23rd in the Mame +Alyce Hamatie Fellowship Hall at the Church beginning at 12:30 PM---please remember that this is a 'pot-luck' luncheon and we need every lady to bring her favorite delicious food to share-thanks!
