Mary’s Moms: Raising Future Saints
Welcome to Mary’s Moms!
Inspired by our Blessed Mother, we celebrate the privilege of raising our families to heaven through a support system of moms at Mary Our Queen. We provide meet-ups such as Rosary & Rosé and Moms & Muffins to share the joys and struggles of motherhood.
UPCOMING MEETUPS:
ROSARY & ROSÉ because even Mary prayed for wine.
Held on the Third Thursday of the month at 7 PM in the Cenacle room of the Trinity building. Come pray the rosary with other moms and enjoy a relaxing evening with snacks. Whether you pray the rosary often or maybe it’s been a minute, come as you are! Nurslings and expecting mothers are welcome!
See you on Thursday, March 20 – RSVP HERE
MOMS & MUFFINS because motherhood loves company.

Come to the Table Ministry
Come to the Table
Come to the Table is a chance to get to know one another better by sharing a meal. It is a way for the adult members of our church to meet other people in the church in an informal home setting.
How it works:
For each round of Come to the Table, groups are formed combining couples and singles for a meal at a host’s home. Group sizes are usually eight but can be 6 or 10 depending on what the hosts can accommodate. This size ensures that the group is large enough to meet new people and small enough for all to be involved in conversation.
Hosts will contact the people assigned to their group to arrange a date that works for all starting in April. Get togethers will be scheduled every other month.
Once a date is established, participants agree on what they will bring to the dinner. These dinners are not intended to be gourmet events, they are gatherings to get to know one another better so any level of culinary expertise is welcome!
How to get involved:
Getting involved is as easy as providing some simple information on the form below including whether you are willing to host. You can join as a single, a couple or a couple of friends who enjoy spending time together. Non-Catholic spouses or friends are absolutely a welcome part of these dinners.
Please join us for our fun gatherings by submitting the form below.

Grief Care Support Group
Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. ~ Matthew 5:4

7-week journey beginning Sunday, February 2nd

Trinity Building, Downstairs Conference Room

Week 2: Beginning to accept the reality of loss
Week 3: Experiencing the pain of grief
Week 4: Adjusting to the environment without your loved one

Believing that grief is a natural response to loss and a necessary process in adjusting to change, we endeavor to support the bereaved in their mourning. Support Groups strive to facilitate:
- Expression of Emotion and Thought about loss, including sadness, pain anxiety, anger, loneliness, guilt, relief, solation confusion or numbness.
- Challenges that often follow a loss can include: disorganization tiredness, trouble concentrating, sleep deprivation, vivid dreams and changes in appetite.
