A spiritual community
The Society of the Companions of the Holy Cross had hoped to welcome Jackie Schmitt, the elected head of all 700 Companions to Saint Philip’s on Saturday, February 17. Unfortunately, Jackie caught COVID and won’t be able to attend.
The Companions will still meet, however, and invite any women from Saint Philip’s who are interested in learning about this group to join them. The meeting will run from 10:00am-2:00pm. Attendees are invited to bring a light lunch.
Who are the Companions of the Holy Cross? They are women committed to prayer, spiritual growth, and are part of a welcoming faith community of Christian women from all walks of life.
Members are young—and older. They are reverent—and sometimes a little irreverent. They are lively. What they all have in common is a commitment to God to support each other through prayer, service, outreach, spiritual growth, fellowship, and simplicity of life.
