For over 50 years, the women of St. John and St. Mary’s parish community have come together bound by their love of God and their church, to provide support for their parish, encouragement for one another and assistance for their community. We strive to accomplish these goals through spiritual renewal, fund raising, social activities and outreach programs. As a result the Women's Association has earned the reputation of responding to the community's needs. In the future, we hope to continue and expand on this long held tradition of care and support. We welcome you to join us in prayer, service and fellowship.
A Letter from Ms. Mary Grant, Women's Association President
Greetings to the Women of St. John and St. Mary Parish!
My name is Mary Grant. This year I will be the President of the St. John and St. Mary Women's Association. Through our activities, we are able to provide critical financial support for the Parish as well assist those in our community in need. Whether you are new to the Parish, a member for years, or you would just like to reconnect, this is your chance to join us.
Your involvement is what you want it to be, when you want it to be. For instance, you can : Participate in our Christmas Fair workshops on Monday and Tuesday mornings starting in October. Help set up for the Christmas Fair or donate baked goods or a raffle prize. Help those in our community in need through our Helping Hands Committee by making dinners, giving rides, or sponsoring a family at Christmas. Help plan our Annual Spring Dinner or just stuff envelopes. Simply join us for one of our many social events.
I have been truly impressed to witness the amazing things our members have been able to accomplish over the years. And, with new membership comes new ideas that will only make our organization better. Some of our activities are during the day, while we also have many functions during the evening. The best way to get involved is to join us and see where you can fit in. By becoming a member, you will be added to our mailing list and will be informed of all of our events.
As members of the Chappaqua community we are involved in our schools, our town and various charitable organizations. This is your opportunity to get involved with our church.
I hope to meet many of you at our Opening Dinner or very soon if you are not able to attend! Please consider becoming a member and join us.
Sincerely, Mary Grant [email protected]
