St. Francis of Assisi Ladies Auxiliary
Our mission and goal as a Catholic family-oriented organization is to assist the Knights of Columbus Council 8909, St. Francis of Assisi Parish, and other community organizations through charitable works in support of our Catholic values.
"Christ has no body on earth but yours, no hands but yours, no feet but yours. Yours are the eyes through which Christ's compassion for the world is to look out; yours are the feet with which He is to go about doing good; and yours are the hands with which He is to bless us now."
About Us
Wives and family members of Knights had been informally supporting the parish and the Knights of Columbus for quite a long time, but officially formed the Ladies Auxiliary in October 2022. We meet on the first Wednesday of every month in the parish’s Assisi Hall at 7PM.
