2009 CWL Past Presidents' Lunch

Angel MacKinnon our CWL president of the last 2 years was given a farewell presentation lunch at Ramekins restaurant by our Church of Good Thief membership ladies. Angel's energy and organization was appreciated in the many projects our CWL Council carried out.

The photos (click on above photo to see all) show Angel being presented with a Certificate of Merit and a bouquet of (friendship) yellow roses from her fellow sisters. God Bless in your new pursuits Angel!

2008 Altar Servers

On Saturday and Sunday 7 & 8 June the CWL made a presention to our many Alter Servers in our parish. These young people are a great example of being active in the church and helping make the Eucharistic celebration a special and spiritual time for each of us.

A thank you card and gift certificate was presented to each Alter Server with much appreciation from Father Boyle and The Catholic Women's League.

2008 Plant and Bake Sale

Plant/Bake Sale ... We are pleased to announce we made $1065 on the weekend of May 31. This exceeds last year's total of $775. It takes many people, a lot of time, and teamwork to hold these events. Thank you so much to everyone who participated!!!

2008 Kingston Archiocesan Council Convention

The 2008 Kingston Archiocesan Council convention took place at the Ambassador hotel on May 3rd & 4th and it was an amazing and sucessful weekend. We had many great speakers as well as a video that was an inspiration by Dewitt Jones of the National Geographic called "Celebrate what's right with the world". This can be viewed on the internet and is so well worth watching, just google the above title to view.

All our members who attended were delighted and inspired by it all, as can be seen by these photos. Newfoundland music was played by a wonderful band on the Saturday night and many ladies took the opportunity to step out on the floor and kick up their dancing heels.

Our Spiritual advisor Rev. Shawn Hughes celebrated with us the whole weekend and was full of praise for how well it was all organized.

COME AND JOIN US NEXT YEAR AT OUR ANNUAL CONVENTION! YOU CAN ENJOY AND BE INSPIRED IN YOUR FAITH.
