Archconfraternity of Christian Mothers

Self-defense & spiritual preservation for families

Mothers play a vital role in upholding Christ’s presence in the world through their high mission to the family. They nurture souls, teach their children, serve and strengthen their families, model Christian self-sacrifice, and witness to the unfathomable parental love God bears for each of His children.

The Confraternity of Christian Mothers is a pious association intended for mothers, which has for its special object the promotion of the good Christian and Catholic education of their children. The members join their hearts in love with the Immaculate Heart of the Blessed Virgin, the Mother of Sorrows, and unite under her patronage in mutual prayer and solicitude for the welfare of their children and families.

St. Thomas Aquinas Parish has received the support of our Bishop to start a Confraternity of Christian Mothers here at the parish.  The purpose of the Christian Mothers is the home-education, character formation and personality development of children guided primarily by mothers at home.  Fathers are alerted to their responsibilities at combined meetings of fathers and mothers scheduled now and again each year.  The Confraternity is a school for mothers.  If you are interested in joining, please contact the parish office, as we will begin formation later this year.  For more information visit christianmothers.org.
