St Anna's Ladies Society
The Ladies Society reflects the mission of the Holy Apostles Orthodox Church by promoting Spiritual Growth, Providing Opportunities for Parishioners to Bond as Family, and Practice Serving those in Need.
Promoting Spiritual Growth: the Ladies participate in several Book Studies and Bible studies during the course of the year. We participate in Lenten Retreats both physically at our church and virtually through Zoom. We decorate our church for Nativity, Pascha, and Pentecost and adore our icons for the Great Feast Days. The Ladies organize the baking of Holy Bread or Phosphora for our church. When participating in each, we experience a deeper sense of Jesus Christ.
Providing Opportunities for Parishioners to Bond as Family: the Ladies get together for various reasons…for Quarterly meetings at restaurants or fun events as Secret Sister and our St.Anna Slava. The Ladies’ focus much of their time on our Church and look at it as our home. The Ladies work together to organize the Fellowship Meals each Sunday and work together to cook, clean, and keep our Church beautiful. When completing each task or event, we bond as a family.
Practice Serving those in Need: Our Almsgiving includes those both inside our Parish and outside in
the community with food, clothing, school supplies, and furniture. We have several ministries, including the Freezer, College Student, and Card Ministry. We also provide various monetary donations. Our fundraisers, such as our Christmas Cookie Sale and Virtual Auction, help us to accomplish these goals to help those in need!
