A spiritual community

The Society of the Companions of the Holy Cross will meet tomorrow, Saturday, February 17, and invite any women from Saint Philip’s who are interested in learning about this group to join them.

The meeting will run 10:00am-2:00pm in the East Murphey Gallery. The program will be a discussion of Companion Vida Dutton Scudder in an article from The Christian Century titled "A rich woman who took the Magnificat seriously."

All 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.
