PCCW

The purpose of St. Peter's Parish Council of Catholic Women shall be to give glory to Almighty God through prayer, study and service for your parish community and the community in which we live.

Our objective is to serve the needs of the women of our parish and to unite all women of St. Peter's Parish in spiritual, educational and social activities. We also aid financially with the needs of the altar, sanctuary, and the parish in general.
