The St. James Assiniboia Catholic Women’s League will be hosting the annual provincial convention which will be held at St. Charles Parish June 2 and 3. Approximately 100 people are expected to attend.
The St. James Assiniboia CWL is unique because it is composed of four parishes - St. Charles, St. Ann’s, St. Paul the Apostle and Blessed John 23rd. Janice Butler is leading the ten member organizing committee which has been working for over a year.
The Catholic Women's League of Canada was organized nationally on June 17, 1920. The League is officially recognized by the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops as a lay association of women and is affiliated with the World Union of Catholic Women's Organizations which has consultative status with agencies of the United Nations.
