Lake Huron Catholic Family 

A CWL Council was established at Immaculate Heart of Mary in Grand Bend in November 1956.  Our members remain active within our parish and support needs locally, provincially, nationally and internationally. 

 Membership in the Catholic Women’s League is an opportunity to share time, talent and energy, for God and country; countless friendships have been formed within this sisterhood! All women, age 16 or older, are invited to join our Council.

 For further information, contact President Regina Xerri via the Lake Huron Catholic Family of Parishes at 1-877-450-6414.

President, Tracy van Diepen

Welcome!

   We welcome all women of the parish age 16 and up to join us in living in faith, service, social justice, and sisterhood. We are a united voice of Catholic women across Canada providing faith-based opportunities for social interaction, personal development, and community service.

    We meet the second Tuesday of the month in the Parish Hall from April through June and September through December. Please join us. And if you are unable to attend meetings, consider a spiritual membership and pray for our efforts.

    Membership fees are $35.00 annually and your membership creates change. Dues can be paid by cash or cheque (payable to St. Peter CWL) at the Parish Office or in the basket at mass. To e-transfer or for more information, contact AnnaMarie Patterson at [email protected].

    In the last 100 years, the CWL has passed approximately 1,000 resolutions on various issues. It is the only women’s organization in Canada that meets annually with various federal ministers and elected officials. League members began the process of creating change in society at a time when many provinces did not yet allow women to vote.
