Our Goals

As our college students and their mothers are facing many changes in this pivotal point in their lives, our group supports BOTH the college-age student and the mothers. We strengthen the students by our prayers and through sending cards with accompanying prayers, meaningful notes, and care packages with a Catholic twist. In the course of our activities, we address many of the tough issues that they are facing.

We also provide encouragement, guidance, prayer, and fellowship to the mothers of these students. We recognize that they play a key role in ensuring their student’s success so we also provide them with the support they need. Additionally, our MoMs group has fun socials to get to know one another better.
 

Our Patron Saint
