Organizations
Men's Club
The Men's Club is a service organization that
assists the Pastor in maintaining and advancing the physical and spiritual
well-being of the Parish. The men organize social and outreach projects that
promote fellowship and charity. Some of their activities include the annual
Monte Carlo Night, a monthly parish breakfast, support of a Precious Blood
Mission in Guatemala, and scholarships for graduating seniors. They meet on
the first Thursday of each month in the Parish Center. All men of the
parish are encouraged to consider fraternal participation in works that
promote Christian charity and a love of Christ.
Mothers Group
The Mothers
Group of Nativity is a group of women sharing ideas, time, and talents with
each other and the parish community. The group provides a setting for
friendship and support, meeting once a month. As their Stewardship in the
parish, the group plans family activities such as a Halloween Party, Breakfast
with Santa, and the annual Easter Egg Hunt. Outreach projects such as
the Annual BETA Clothing Drive and Angel Gift Tree at Christmas are also
organized by this group. Mothers of all ages are invited to join.
Ministry of Moms Sharing
This is an eight-week
program which creates an environment where women who share the role of
motherhood can come together for personal and spiritual growth opportunities.
Workshops are held throughout the year for Peer facilitators both at the
Parish and diocesan level for leadership in this program.
Lay Carmelites
The Nativity Lay
Carmelites are a Third Order group dedicated to prayer and is open to all men
and women of the parish. The Carmelites meet the first
Saturday of each month after the 8:30 AM Mass, followed by the Rosary and
"Little Office." Since the Carmelites are a prayer group, a petition box
for your prayers is located in the vestibule by the daily chapel. Place
your petitions in the box, and the Carmelites will pray for them.

Knights of Columbus is a fraternal service organization of men. The
Father Richard J. Lyons Council #5357 Knights are involved in service to the
community, charitable, religious, family, and fraternal activities.
