Thanks to the help of many of its members, Meryem Ana community is a welcoming and dynamic community. The community needs you and your talents and hopes you will receive much through your giving! If you are the main person in charge of an activity, you’ll be invited to be a member of the community council, meeting once a month after mass.
The main activities are as follows:
Children and religious education
Religious education of children and teenagers, preparing children for their first communion or confirmation, or assisting in the children’s liturgy taking place during Sunday mass.
