We were never meant to walk this life alone. God Himself is a community in the trinity. God the Father loves God the Son, God the Son loves God the Father, and the love that they share is the Holy Spirit.

The Silver Belles ministry is for active grandmothers, single and married mature women. Our motto is Focus on Friendship and Faith. Our purpose is social, service, and support.
Women in this category face many challenges like divorce, illness, and death of a spouse, children moving far away, various illness and dependence on good friends and neighbors. With such a mobile population we need some good friends around us.
The hope it meets the needs of many wonderful women in our parish. Together we can contribute something special to our parish community. If you are interested in joining the Silver Belles Ministry, please contact [email protected]

We gather the first Monday of each month at 12 p.m. Our gatherings are usually held in Hennessy Hall, although dates and locations may be changed as necessary. So, please check the church bulletin for our announcements. Our monthly gatherings are potluck dinners, followed by a short business meeting. Each month we have a door prize drawing. We also sell 50/50 raffle tickets, with half of the proceeds going to the club treasury. A social hour follows, with board games and cards.
Members receive birthday and anniversary cards, as well as receive get well or sympathy cards. Also, members are placed on the Yesterday’s Kids Prayer Line as the need arises.
At the club’s expense, members are treated to special dinners with entertainment for holidays like Christmas.
Our organization is administered by annually elected officers of President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer. Chairpersons are appointed for various committees by the President.
Mission Statement: In the present time of mercy, the Marian Missionaries of Divine Mercy (MMDM) consciously and deliberately aim to win the whole world for God and prepare it for the Lord’s final coming as quickly as possible, especially through the two powerful spiritual weapons of Marian Consecration and Divine Mercy.
This apostolic movement for the laity is inspired by the teaching and example of St. John Paul II. Members give themselves to this mission through service, special projects, various apostolic works, or administrative/prayer support. The St. Andrew MMDM’s focus currently is performing corporal and spiritual works of mercy at our church and in the community. The Marian Missionaries of Divine Mercy support one another in individual/group efforts to radiate the joy of the Gospel and Christ’s love to others.
The Marian Missionaries of Divine Mercy Ministry is an outreach of the Father Michael Gaitley’s HeartsAfire Program Retreats: 33
Days to Morning Glory; Consoling the Heart of Jesus; and Wisdom and Works of Mercy. These retreats are offered at St. Andrew’s on Wednesday evenings and Thursday mornings. Having completely all of these retreats is not an absolute criteria for being part of this ministry. New members are always welcomed.
The Marian Missionaries of Divine Mercy meets on the second Thursday of each month at 6:30-8:00pm. The MMDM ministry works in cooperation with the outreach areas of the office of Caring Ministries.
