Altar & Rosary Society

The St. Pius X Altar & Rosary Society is one of the oldest organizations in the parish, dating back to the very beginning of the parish. One of it's principal ministries is to care for the altar and all that is associated with it.

The members share duties in caring for the sanctuary and sacristy from January through June (the Women's Circle assumes the responsibility for the remainder of the year). They also participate in other parish activities, such as bringing blankets and food to the homeless during the January Salvation Army Canteen. The ladies have also helped financially in parish projects and participate in many social activities throughout the year.

If you are interested in joining the Altar & Rosary Society, please contact the parish office at 993-4053.
