The Holy Name Society is an active, adult men’s organization for men ages 18 and up. It honors the Holy Name of Jesus through service, social, and spiritual events. We assist the parish by supporting events and raising funds for projects and people in the parish. We attend the 8:15 a.m. Mass together on the Second Sunday of the month and serve as Eucharistic Ministers and Lectors for that Mass.
Members and their wives gather many times a year for socials, including a summer barbecue, and special presentations. We offer to pray the rosary for any deceased member of the parish at the person’s wake. Some of our recent fundraising efforts included: Purchased the electric sign in front of the church, helped pay for replacing the glass on the church doors, and paid for the handrails leading up to the altar. We also run a Men's Underwear and Sock drive once a year to help men in need.
If you are interested in learning more about the Holy Name Society, we meet the first Wednesday of the month at 6:00 p.m. in the St. Joseph Hall. Please feel free to join us! Please contact Joseph by calling the parish office at (330) 896-2345.
