St. Mary’s has two chapters of Our Lady’s Sodality
The Sodality of the Blessed Virgin is for young ladies ages 14-20 which generally meets on the First Saturday of the month after Mass and First Saturday Devotion. “The Sodality of the Blessed Virgin Mary, or the Congregation of the Children of Mary, has for its object to assemble its members at the feet of the Mother of God, to dedicate them in a very special manner to the veneration and service of the Blessed Virgin” (From The Catholic Girl’s Guide, by Fr. Lasance).

The Sodality of Mary, Mother of Mercy (named after the Marian Altar in the Church) is for women over 21 years old. The chief aim of this chapter, taken from the Sodality’s manual, is “…to foster in the hearts of the members a more than ordinary devotion to our Blessed Lady, in order that, helped by her special protection, they may lead a pure Christian life and prepare themselves to die a happy death.”
This chapter of the Sodality will provide women with opportunities for social interaction, spiritual growth, and prayers for the intentions of their fellow parishioners.
Ladies of the parish will have the opportunity to serve on standing committees such as sewing and altar linens, flowers, church cleaning, and parish events. Other committees may be formed as needed.
This chapter will regularly meet on the 2nd Thursday of the month at 6:00 p.m., with a time of Adoration and opportunity for confession, a spiritual talk, work, and refreshments.
