​Our Mission

At the heart of our mission is the message of St. Josemaria, founder of Opus Dei, that each of us is a child of God, a person of intrinsic value, and that God comes to meet us in the ordinary realities and challenges of our daily life.  We seek to help young women learn how to do the ordinary tasks of each day extraordinarily well, thereby making their work more meaningful and transforming it into service for others.

​​

Staff

Leadership clubs support the work of parents in the formation of their children and are led by women who attend programs offered by Arborlea Study Center. High school and college women, many of whom are former club members, serve as club helpers and give talks on virtue and character development and assist with activities.

​​

Meetings

Meetings are monthly during the school year.  Activities vary by club but can include arts and crafts, cooking, home arts, service projects, and cultural excursions.

Contact

Please contact the Club Leader listed to learn more or to register for a particular club.  General questions can be directed to Heather Joseph, Girls Club Coordinator, at 214-868-5680 or heather.le.joseph@gmail.com.
