Welcome to St. Peter Women’s Guild where there’s a place for women of all ages and stages of life.
Our faith journey is strengthened and a lot more fun with the support of other women and the Guild is a great place to meet these women. Our activities include social and spiritual bonding as well as community service projects.
The Women’s Guild meets monthly September through May on a Sunday from 5 – 7 pm (with a break for the Christmas Holidays). We have a variety of speakers come and always serve a delicious supper afterwards.
We had over 40 women attend our first meeting in September. Several of you signed up to be a greeter, hostess or bring food to one of our monthly meetings. We are so appreciative of your help! I’ve included the upcoming calendar of Guild events below as well as the board members and their email addresses if you didn’t get a chance to sign up, please email us!
We all look forward to seeing you at St. Peter Women’s Guild!
Blessings,
Kay Johnson
