Ladies' Philoptochos Society

This group of our ladies gets together for fellowship and to accomplish activities to help the church and to assist those in our community in great need. The Philoptochos Society is the philanthropic arm of the parish and they give thousands of dollars away each year to those in need locally, regionally, nationally and internationally.
