MARTHA & MARY MINISTRY

The Martha & Mary (M&M) Women’s Ministry welcomes all women of the Cathedral parish to join us!​ The M&M Ministry is dedicated to creating a warm and welcoming environment that unites all women of the parish.  We strive to support our Cathedral community while sharing our friendship, faith, and talents as we collaboratively contribute to the various facets of our parish life.

​

Monthly meetings are held on the second Sunday of each month from 9:45-10:45 a.m. These meetings are held in the church office. We do break for the summer months of mid-May through mid-August.

​​

To explain ~ the Gospel of Luke (Ch.10) shows us two ways to serve the Lord. When our Lord comes to visit their home, Martha hurries to ensure the preparations, while her sister Mary sits at the feet of Jesus and listens to His word. Following the examples of these holy women, we strive to do both - "work like Martha" and "pray like Mary." Thus, our activities are two-fold: focused on serving our parish family as well as strengthening our fellowship in Christ.

​

Annual events that the M&M ladies coordinate and host are as listed below:

 

• February: A full or half day retreat

• March: Mardi Gras Party

• October: All Saints Day “Be a Saint” Party

• December: Advent Wreath Workshop

• December: Ladies Advent by Candlelight Evening

 

Additionally, we serve alongside other Cathedral ministries such as the Rectory Open House, and one of the Room at the Inn nights held here at the Cathedral. Throughout the year, we also will organize social events for the members of M&M so that we can gather for enrichment as well as have fun together.
