Who we are: The CCW provides a medium through which women are united to share in God’s work and His Will. Membership is open to all women of St. Patrick Parish. The CCW helps provide funds for supplies and upkeep of the Altar and flowers for the Church. Money is raised each year through donations and a fundraiser. The CCW has as its objectives to share in the physical caring of the altar, to have authorized representation in Deanery, Diocesan, State, and National affairs of the National Council of Catholic Women, and to promote a program of Catholic action in cooperation with the Bishop and Pastor.
CCW Circles: The CCW Circles are individual groups of women working under the guidance of the Officers of the CCW Board. Each Circle has a Captain who coordinates Circle duties and communicates all information to and from the group. Service opportunities are balanced with fun and fellowship at the Circle meetings. The Circles provide a means to stay connected with longtime and new friends while also strengthening our Church community.

Prayer of the Council of Catholic Women:
Lord, we are gathered together in love and friendship that we may be of service to you. Grant that by uniting our efforts, we may spread this love and friendship not only to those throughout our parish family, but also to all with whom we come in contact so that others, too, will have a greater desire to know, love, and serve You. Amen.
