STA Mothers' Association
Welcome to the St. Thomas Aquinas Mothers’ Association (STAMA). Founded in 1961, we are a Catholic organization whose purpose is to aid moms in providing a Catholic home atmosphere for children. Membership is open to all St. Thomas Aquinas mothers interested in enhancing the moral, spiritual, and educational welfare of their children. We have many opportunities to get involved in parish life and to form friendships with other St. Thomas Aquinas moms.
