The Holy Cross Ladies Guild has been active at Holy Cross for over twenty years. Their main purpose is service-oriented.
For example:

• Each year the Ladies Guild helps support a Concordia University seminary student. The Guild provides monetary as well as spiritual support of the student.
• The Guild donates new pajamas, underwear and Christmas gifts to Lutheran Child & Family Services for the children in foster homes.
• Our Lutheran Women’s Missionary League (LWML) representative attends the League’s meetings and reports back to the Guild with news and information. At various time of the year we make requests of the congregation members for soap, blankets and clothing for the Lutheran World Relief Organization who then distributes these items to needy countries all over the world.
• We prepare and serve funeral luncheons for those families who request them.
• Once a year the Birmingham Pastor’s Circuit meets at Holy Cross and we provide a brunch for the pastors attending.
• We host and serve social dinners several times a year.
• We occasionally have various (and we hope, interesting) fundraisers to help defray our operating costs.

You don’t have to be involved in all or even any of the activities to be a Guild member. We would enjoy having you come to a meeting and getting to know you. The Ladies Guild meets the first Tuesday of the month (except July & August) at 12:30pm for fellowship followed by our regular meeting at 1:00pm.
