Women's Group

For the past twelve years the Women’s Club has served the women of St. John Neumann in religious and social activities and has funded many items in the parish.  Among these are:

  • the St. John Neumann statue outside our Little Angel’s Room and

  • the parish sign at the entrance to our church.  

Recently, because of declining enrollment, Sr. Pat and Fr. Bob met with the existing board members to discuss the status of the Women’s Club and explore new possibilities for meeting the needs of women in our parish.  Among the questions asked were: 

  • “What are the needs of women today?”  

  • “Are they the same as ten or even five years ago?”  

  • “What is the ministry to women in our parish?”

Responses from those present indicate that although we have a blend of age groups; in general, we are a young parish with many children. Because of the necessary parental involvement I their children’s activities, little time is left for just another meeting.  In spite of this, however, there is still the need

  • for spiritual fulfillment, healing and help for women. 

  • to be with other women;

  • to share our lives and our faith, and; 

  • to consider health issues and possibly service projects.

The Board Members met again on Tuesday, October 26, 1999 and continued their discussion of new directions for a Women’s Group in our parish.  

We invite women of the parish to give any input and ideas regarding this effort to meet the needs of women today by calling, or writing, or e-mailing these to Sr. Pat at    Srpat@sjnohio.com.
