The Ladies Auxiliary of the Knights of Columbus was formed in February of 2011. Membership is open to women over the age of 18 years old who is a wife, widow, mother, sister, or daughter to a member of the Knights and to all women of St. Pius X Parish. We participate in activities as requested by the Parish or voted on by our membership. We also support the Knights and their activities.
The following are some of our activities:
July - The Mum Sale - we take orders for our Mum Sale. The mums arrive in September for pick up. Proceeds are donated to various charities as voted on by our membership. We also donate mums to be placed in the Sanctuary during Fall.
October - We operate the Baby Bottle Campaign. All funds collected are sent to Winona Catholic Charities.
December - We chair the parish bake sale that occurs with the Christmas Tea. All proceeds collected are given to St. Pius X Parish.
Our meetings always begin with the Rosary. In May we honor Mary with an outdoor crowning.
PLEASE JOIN US!! We meet the second Thursday of the month except December, June, July and August in the Bride's Room at St. Pius X at 7pm. Dues are $15 for membership which runs September 1- August 31.
