Militia Immaculatae Rosary Group

This group received its name from St. Maximilian Kolbe, who began this movement during his lifetime. It means “Mary’s Army.” The group meets bi-monthly by grade level groupings (3-5, 6-8) to pray the Rosary, learn more about the Marian apparitions and devotions of our faith, and the treasures of our Church in the lives of the saints.

Junior Quill and middle school members participate in and sponsor poetry and essay contests. Middle school members often teach writing lessons they have chosen and prepared themselves to the primary and intermediate classes. Quill meetings are held regularly to plan activities promoting excellence in writing throughout the school.
