We are a group at St. Anthony formed by women of all ages and life-stages. We hope to provide fun, meaningful, and faith-filled opportunities for women in the parish and school community to gather, share in their faith, laugh, sip a glass of wine or two, and even go on adventures!
Together, we can help each other Be the Light for our families, friends, and for our parish and school.
All women of St. Anthony Church and School (high school and older) are warmly invited to join us for our 2023 Spring Retreat at the beautiful Camp Geneva Retreat Center in Holland, Michigan from March 3-5. We will enjoy time away for prayer, fellowship, good food, worship, and two enriching talks. The registration deadline is February 24.
If committing to the entire weekend is holding you back, then feel free to sign up for the Saturday-only option. The cost for the day is $40.
Ready to sign up? You can register by filling out the paper form, or the online form.
We'll gather on the second Thursday of each month (other than a few exceptions during the year). Checkout our events calendar below to see what's coming up. We will also aim to have some daytime and some evening gatherings so that every woman, on any schedule, has a chance to join in.
Be sure to download the myParish app and find Be the Light under the groups icon. We'll use this to send out quick notifications, and you can use it too!
Tap "start a discussion" if you want to post a message to the group - you use to invite women in our parish to join in a walking group or prayer group. You can ask for recommendations for house projects or services, babysitters, etc!
