Junior Catholic Daughters of the Americas

Junior Catholic Daughters of the Americas, otherwise known as JCDA, is a unique organization that is exclusively for Catholic girls. Our Blessed Mother, Mary, is our Patroness.

The JCDA members accept, act, and live the Christian message, in service to God through others in a variety of activities. The areas of involvement include Message, Service, and Community.

JCDA/Court Marion is based out of St. Mary Parish in Mt. Angel; however, girls from surrounding parishes are welcome to join JCDA/Court Marion. Each member is given a blue sash and earns project and activity pins to attach to her sash.

Court activities include regular meetings; furthering religious education; involvement in Corporal and Spiritual Works of Mercy projects, such as the annual May Crowning, Adopt-a-Seminarian program, baby shower for the Fr. Taaffe Foundation, and nursing home assistance; scholarships; fundraisers. Court Marion participates in State JCDA activities, including the State JCDA Conventions and State JCDA Fun Days.

Meeting Dates:
2nd Sundays of the month, 11am in the lower level of the Parish Center.
Meetings will begin November 2022.
