In service to children and youth and those who nurture them is the mission statement and focus of the St. Monnica Guild. The women of this group have a wonderful time in fellowship during their two annual fundraisers, retreat days and coffees during the year. Many deep, lasting friendships have been formed through these activities. The fund raising efforts support the activities of children and youth.

The two annual fundraisers happen during the spring and fall. The Palm Sunday Brunch each Spring includes a feast of scrambled eggs with a variety of toppings (salsa, cheese, cheese, etc.), fruit, baked goods, coffee, and juice. The fall fundraiser is the Bake Sale, which happens on the Sunday before Thanksgiving. Breads, muffins, coffee cakes, pies, cookies, "people chow", Chex Mix, and fudge are just some of the treats you can buy and save yourself some baking time! Both of these are held after the morning services.

The group also treats themselves and invites women in the community to participate in an annual mini retreat or "pamper me" day. At other times during the year they meet to have coffee and fellowship on a Saturday morning.

St Monnica Guild meets on the 3rd Sunday of the month, after the 10:00 am service, September through May.
