A WELCOME MESSAGE
From the Community of Catholic Women
at St. Peter the Apostle Church 

Mission Statement

We, the Community of Catholic Women of St. Peter the Apostle Catholic Church, strive to use our time and talents to serve our Parish and Community. We are dedicated, fun-loving women who are filled with the grace of God, the love of Christ and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit and inspired by our role model, the Blessed Mother. 

• We seek to provide Spirit-filled fellowship for all women of our parish through our monthly meetings and our annual calendar of events.
• We are a committed and dynamic group of women who strive to use our time and talents to serve our Parish and Community.
• Monies raised are used to support our Catholic youth, the RCIA program, altar servers, the Craft Group, the Rosary Makers, St. Vincent de Paul Society, local migrant worker camps and other selected charities.
• CCW members also operate the parish Religious Store, whose revenue helps to support our parish, and are active in many church ministries, including Respect for Life, Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist, RCIA, Youth Ministry, Lectors and the Choir.
• We welcome all women of the Parish to attend our meetings and events. In addition, members are encouraged to invite friends and family.

I am truly honored and very excited to serve as President of the St Peter the Apostle Community of Catholic Women.
I will do my best, along with the Board, to promote events that build and support:
 1)  Fellowship
 2) Service to our parish and community
 3) Spiritual growth of our membership.

To all of you I say, get involved: work at the CCW shop, volunteer for the Fashion Show, work at the 2^nd Time Around Sale. The more you get involved, the more wonderful people you will meet.  Share your enthusiasm, your time and your talents. You won’t be sorry. I look forward to working with you on our fun projects while helping to support our wonderful parish. You can make a difference.
With Mary as our guide, we go forward with our CCW sisters ready to make this another wonderful and successful year.
Peace be with you,
Doriel Hess
