The Holy Name Society

OUR LADY OF MERCY PARISH, 500 SOUTH OYTER BAY ROAD HICKSVILLE, NY

The Holy Name Society is a fellowship of Catholic men. Our primary objective is to beget due love and reverence for the Holy Name of God and Jesus Christ.

Each month Holy Name Members meet to discuss liturgical issues and how they relate to events in the news and media and how they affect Catholic men.  We also pray for the sick and deceased, and plan special activities for Our Lady of Mercy Parish and School.

In recent years the men of the Society have used their time and talents to raise funds for many worthwhile Parish projects.  The Tom McHale Court of Dreams, new desks for Our Lady of Mercy School, candle votives for the Church, the sculpture of the extended Holy Family and more are all signs that the Holy Name Society is a vital part of the parish. Additionally, the Holy Name Society provides funds for Parish Services, The Youth Ministry, Outside Charities and more. 

We attend Mass & Celebrate Communion together as a group on the second Sunday of each month at 9:00 am Mass, and hold our monthly general meeting on the following Monday
