Prayer Services Committee - Diane Kar and Courtneay Odden.

Each service was a special time to come together for reflection, renewal, and community.

This amazing team of senior moms planned three senior mom socials, three fabulous senior treat days, and led a special senior mom retreat at Manresa. Thank you for all of the planning and effort to make this final year unforgettable for our Class of 2025 moms!
Class of 2026 Committee - Laura Castle, Minal Chokshi, Stephanie Jauregui-Hidalgo, and Neetu Patel. These wonderful ladies planned two fabulous socials for our Class of 2026 moms. It helped our junior moms make time to strengthen friendships and bonds with fellow class moms.
