The purpose of St. James Mothers’ Group is to provide mothers with fellowship, support, and opportunities to grow their Christian faith in order to nurture their children with confidence and Christian values. Through activities such as service projects, parties, speakers, and discussion – moms are given the opportunity to connect with other moms in support and friendship.

Here is what the Moms have been saying about the Group:
When asked, “what is it that keeps you coming back?” moms have said, “The conversation and the shared spirituality.” “The people, the commonality of being Mothers and being Catholic.” ”The wonderful women and friendship and the chance to learn more about our faith together as women and mothers.”
When asked, “are the meetings and other gatherings satisfying you spiritually?” moms have said, “Totally! I love the opening prayers, the addition of blessings, and special intentions. Also, the Rosary meeting was a highlight for me. Being a new Catholic, I never would have been exposed to this without our group.”
When asked, “are you pleased with the childcare provided?” moms have said, “Yes! She did a great job of engaging the kids.” “I felt very comfortable leaving my 2-year-old son with the childcare providers while I enjoyed an hour of adult conversation and support. I also loved the neat crafts that the kids proudly showed off at the end of the meeting.”
When asked, “if you were to write our mission statement, what keywords would you use?” moms have said, “support, friendship, nurturing spirituality, faith, catholic commitment, journeying together, camaraderie.”
