The IHM Ladies Club (also known in some parishes as the Women's Club, Altar Society, or Council of Catholic Women) is a group of lay Catholic women who come together in fellowship, service, and spiritual growth to support the mission of the parish and the broader Church.

 

The IHM Ladies Club:

1. Parish Service & Support

• Helps with church cleaning, decorating, and maintaining the altar and sacristy (linens, candles, flowers, etc.).

• Organize and serve at funerals, receptions, and parish events.

• Host hospitality events like coffee hours, potlucks, and parish socials.

• Assist with fundraisers for parish needs (roof repairs, vestments, scholarships, etc.).

2. Spiritual Enrichment

• Offer Bible studies, retreats, prayer groups, or rosary circles.

• Promote devotion to Mary, the saints, and Eucharistic adoration.

• Celebrate feasts and liturgical seasons with prayer and reflection events.

3. Fellowship & Community Building

• Foster friendship and support among IHMC Catholic women.

• Encourage the involvement of new parishioners, especially women.

• Provide a welcoming and nurturing space for faith-sharing and personal growth.

 

The IHM Ladies Club is a vital part of parish life. It brings women together to:

• Serve the Church with love and dedication

• Strengthen bonds of faith and friendship

• Live out their vocation as disciples, mothers, daughters, and leaders
