Women of Saint Michael (WOSM)
Welcome to the Women of Saint Michael (WOSM). All women who are members of Saint Michael are automatically members of WOSM. Our theme for the 2023–2024 programming year is "Art and Spirituality." As President of the WOSM, Adele Broughton invites us to take a minute to stop, look, and appreciate the beautiful, artistic world in which we live.
The 2023–2024 programming year features a four part speaker series on topics including plans for our Parish, visual and decorative arts, literature, and the role faith plays in the creation of art. This year's line-up promises to be engaging and enlightening as we contemplate our interactions with Art and how Art can inspire Spirituality.
