Circlette of Mary's Angels |
The Squirettes of Mary sponsored by the Don Bosco Columbiettes, Auxiliary #7784, are also known as Mary's Angels. This is the official girl's division of the Columbiettes (female counterpart of the Knights of Columbus). The Squirettes are comprised of Circlettes with girls aged 8-17 which are patterned similarly to the Columbian Squires. One of our aims is to cultivate purity of thought, action, and intention within our members. We pattern our lives after that of Mary, our Blessed Mother.
Our motto is to "Know - Love - Serve" (Gamma - Phi - Delta) |
NAME
The name Squirettes of Mary (Mary’s Angels) was chosen because of its sacred meaning and because the organization is consecrated to United Catholic Action through devotion to Our Blessed Mother under whose protection the organization was founded.
PURPOSE
The purpose of the Circlette is to develop spiritual, cultural/service, civic, and social growth along with leadership qualities. Members will make new friendships and prosper in a fun, service-based Catholic organization. We build a strong bond of sisterhood and friendship while developing life skills and team work. Some parents have described our group as "girl scouts" with a Catholic twist.
SETUP
The Squirettes elect their own officers and each girl serves on a committee. The officers are: President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Sentinel and two Trustees.
