St. Anne  (2008/9 chair: Adele Bruno)
Meets on the 3rd Tuesday at 10 am

St. Anne's Circle is St. Mary Magdalen's newest addition to our parish's CCW. They seek to fill a need for stay-at-home moms who would like to meet during the day. The focus of St. Anne's is a spiritual one. They are looking forward to not only studying scripture, but to learning more about their Catholic faith so that they may pass that knowledge on to their children.  St. Anne’s Circle’s fundraiser is the parish Seder Meal.  St. Anne’s also produces the SMM Vacation Bible School.
