We invite you to join the St. Elizabeth Sodality and share with the women of our Parish our faith, prayers, and collective acts of love and charity.
Every year, we organize 8 monthly meetings from October to May. We promote faith formation, social outreach, and social interaction. To honor our Marian devotion, all our meetings begin with the recitation of the rosary. In addition to our monthly meetings, our Sodality also sponsors a monthly Holy Hour, an annual brunch or Day of Reflection for all the women of the parish, and a weekly prayer group that prays for the intentions of our parish family. Our Mary’s Helpers group provides spiritual, emotional and logistical support to families of our sister Sodalists who have experienced a death or serious illness of a family member. We also assist the Shady Grove Pregnancy Center with mailing and other administrative needs.
We provide Apostolic Outreach to local community organizations such as St Joseph House (fundraisers, Christmas Giving Tree); Rainbow Place (an emergency shelter that serves homeless women seeking to transition to a new life), St Gabriel’s Project and NIH Children’s Center.
Any woman who is a member or associated with St Elizabeth Parish who is interested in expanding your faith and growing closer to Jesus through Mary, serving our community and developing lasting bonds with sister Sodalists is invited to join Sodality.
The flexible membership structure of our Sodality is designed to support participation at different levels.
