An Invitation to the Women of the Parish
For 19 years, the Ladies Auxiliary has been an active, integral volunteer Ministry at Transfiguration Catholic Church. We’re the Ladies who make and distribute Prayer Gifts to any and all in need of prayer, sell used books, cook spaghetti dinners for the Parish, and support internal and external charities. Thus far, the Auxiliary has been affiliated with the Knights of Columbus, which limited membership to a few of our Parish. In January 2022, the Ladies Auxiliary of Transfiguration transitioned to a parish ministry.
Beginning February 1st, membership will be warmly extended to all Ladies. The Ladies Auxiliary is open those, 21 years and over, in the Transfiguration Parish Family. The ladies help to spread the word of God through our many charitable works in a spirit of friendship and fun.
Please feel free to reach out to any member of our current Board, as we’re confident you will have questions.

Our Ministry Outreach Includes:
The Prayer Gift Ministry
On Thursdays a group of ladies gather to cut, sew, iron and assemble prayer gifts that are distributed to those in need of our prayers. We meet with ChrisTeen for a cutting party several times throughout the year. They do a wonderful job cutting fabric for the ladies to assemble at a later date. Literally, Thousands of Prayer Gifts have been distributed Around The World to those in need of comfort.
* Donations of fabric and funds, as well as new sewers, are always welcome! *
Annual Used Book Sale
The Ladies collect used books from the community. In June, they sort and categorize the books and host an awesome used book sale open to the Parish and the whole community.
Rosary Making Ministry
Monthly, a group meets to make rosaries for first communicants, graduates, the military and others who request them.
Annual Spaghetti Dinner
The annual Spaghetti Dinner coincides with the used book sale and is a great way for families to enjoy a dinner out before they peruse the great book bargains. The dinner features REAL Italian Spaghetti and Meat Balls prepared by REAL Italians!
Lenten Dinners
The Ladies team up with the Knights of Columbus to prepare and serve delicious homemade desserts at the Lenten dinners.
Ladies Night Out
Once each month the Ladies gather for an evening of socializing, refreshments and Bunko.
