Looking for the latest Area Catholic news, events and information for the Saint Andrew community, the Diocese, and beyond?
Saint Andrew Catholic Church Events:
Millions of Monicas (M.O.M.) recognizes the countless mothers, biological or spiritual, who rather than fret for the souls of their children, want to join forces and do something to gently lead them back to our beautiful Catholic faith.
This is not a support group where help is sought to “fix” our children or their
circumstances. Quite the contrary, there is no sharing of stories or group discussions. No one knows and no one asks why each mother, grandmother, Godmother, aunt, friend is there. Souls are simply united in prayer, allowing God to shoulder our concerns.
Each “Monicas” evening will follow the same one-hour format.
Please join us on the third Monday of the month (April 20) with check-in beginning at 5:50 PM with a prompt start at 6:00 PM. We will meet in the sanctuary of the church. Bring a rosary.
