WOMEN OF ST. BENEDICT

Welcome!! to the Women of St. Benedict (WOSB) web page.

WOSB has been a vibrant part of the parish for 43 years. All women who are members of St. Benedict are automatically members. It is easy to become an "active" member of our organization—simply come to our meetings. NO DUES are charged.

Our monthly meetings are held from September through May. We provide FREE babysitting at these meetings.

Do you like to have fun? Do you enjoy spending time doing something positive? Do you enjoy working with other women? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then WOSB is the perfect place for you.

In addition to meetings, we have many varied activities, services projects and fund raisers. We offer something of interest for everyone.

A booklet of the Women of St. Benedict is available in the Parish office.


November Meeting

The Women of St. Benedict are excited to present a lesson with the Arthur Murray Dance Company. Eric and one of his students will spend the morning teaching popular dances to all who come and join the fun! He’ll also teach some popular line dances. Don’t worry about a partner, just put on your dancing shoes and learn to “Dance Like the Stars” (or at least like you have a clue about what you’re doing). The fun happens November 20, at 9:30 am in O’Brien Hall. All are welcome, including husbands and friends.

Don’t forget to come hungry. Our hostesses will be ready to feed all the dancers and spectators. For babysitting call Maria Streno at 724.942.5570.
