A long-standing tradition for Catholic Women has been to join the Catholic Women’s League in their own parish
The League is comprised of women from every province in Canada working together to benefit their Church, their Family and their Country while bringing ourselves closer to God and our eternal reward in Heaven.
Take a look at your own life and ask yourself if you have included GOD on your bucket list?
Today’s women are busier than ever, all we ask is for 2 hours a month, could you take some time to join?
You will make new friends that will last a lifetime while contributing to a wonderful organization doing good for God by helping our Sisters across the country and the world.
