Women's Cornerstone

The Sisterhood of Cornerstone is the community of alumnae  who have participated and completed a cornerstone.   For over 25 years, hundreds of women have connected here at St. Mary’s through our cornerstone retreats.  The roles of women have certainly evolved, however our need to make a difference and not to feel alone remain relevant.

 You don’t want to miss all that is happening here...
 > Scheduled special events are being planned to bring our community of women together.

The Women’s Cornerstone is an opportunity for the women of our community to revitalize and deepen their spiritual lives through a combination of quiet reflection, prayer and social interaction.  In sharing the story of one’s own personal faith journey we inspire others.  

 The annual women’s retreat event is a time to escape the daily grind and find some much-needed quiet time to grow in faith, reflect on our lives, make new friends and give thanks for our blessings.  

 All are welcome. This event is typically scheduled at the on-set of our Lenten season and advance registration is required.  Details will be posted in the bulletin after the Christmas season.  If you have not yet participated, we encourage you to pray on and we hope you will join us.

 As women it is important for us to have a place and a voice to build each other up and support one another through the ups and downs of life.
