Organizations of the Church

Confraternity of Christian Mothers. Ladies of St. John’s Parish have been affiliated with the Confraternity of Christian Mothers since 1903. Father Roll from the National Confraternity was here in the fall of 1973 to celebrate our 70th Anniversary. The Sodality enrolls married ladies at their annual May breakfast. Other activities include monthly meetings fundraising, Christmas potluck and praying rosaries and having Masses said for deceased members. Records date back to 1918 when Mrs. Christina Enenback served as president. She was the grandmother of Mrs. Hy Diers. The organization’s expenses at that time were brooms, bedding, linens, sweeping compound and other necessities for the school and convent. Dues at that time were 50¢ a year as told by Clara Glass who, with her sister Rosa, joined the Sodality in October 1903. At one time there was also a Ladies Guild for the single ladies.

Approximately one hundred members are presently enrolled. The function of the Sodality is to help spiritually and financially the parish, and is also a social function for the ladies of the Church.

Christian Youth Organization. High school students of St. John’s are in their 23rd year of C.Y.O. in 1975. Starting first in 1952 under the guidance of Father Stork under the name of D.Y.O. (Diocesan Youth Organization). In later years the name was changed to C.Y.O. (Christian Youth Organization). The parishes connected with the Kuemper Catholic High School have kept up a vigorous spirit in its high school groups, and this especially holds true for our Arcadia teenagers.

The Arcadia C.Y.O. functions in much the same manner as any other club. The students elect four officers and appoint committees to conduct their gatherings with assistance of the pastor. Various activities and projects are sponsored by the organization. All freshmen especially look forward to the annual initiation while seniors look forward to reaching their scholarship project goals. Basketball, roller skating, bowling and softball are a few of the hobbies undertaken. Lunches, benefits, dances, carwashes, raffles and walk-a-thongs are methods used to raise revenue.

This is another sideline of St. John’s Parish where a century of working together has made our community one of the most gifted in the world!
