The Ladies’ Auxiliary was formed right from the outset. Its functions include fund-raising bazaars (held once or twice a year), banquets, and general cleaning up of the church. In 198? The name was changed to the Sisterhood of Myrrh-Bearing Women. The Sisterhood has its own Executive, holds its own meetings, but turns all monies over to ROS
