Catholic Women’s League
The Catholic Women’s League is a national organization rooted in Gospel values, calling its members to holiness through service. The League regularly provides prayer service and honour guard for deceased members, funeral lunches, assists with the lending library operation, provides flowers to shut-ins and many other means of service. We also provide support for missions, hold our hugely successful annual card party in November, host an annual bake sale, a winter tea, as well as our highly anticipated and attended Communion brunch. Of special note are the Holy Masses we celebrate at Parkview Cemetery, Waterloo, for our deceased parishioners, and annually with the Carmelite Nuns at The Carmel of St. Joseph, St. Agatha. We invite you to join us and serve God and country with your participation. The Catholic Women’s League is open to women over 16 years of age.

Do you,or someone you know, need assistance?

Prayer Shawl Ministry
Hand knit shawls & blankets, blessed, and ready to provide comfort, encouragement & the confidence that God’s love is wrapped around us always, especially in time of need.
Special event coming up on May 29th: Prayer Shawl Ministry Gathering & Reflection, click here to learn more.
Our mission combines the sharing of talents and love of God in service to others in a tangible way that can touch the heart and warm the body of the receiver. The knitter/crocheter prays from beginning to end of each shawl, for a recipient, whether known or unknown. Prayers are with intention that this shawl will spread the message of God’s love, mercy and compassion. Prayer shawls are Blessed by our pastor, Father Piotr during a Holy Mass before they are given to anyone who may be in need of comfort and/or solace. The needs vary from illness to celebration and joy, from birth to death–and any occasion where someone could be touched by, and encouraged by someone’s caring, and the power of prayer. For more information or to arrange a prayer shawl for someone you know who would benefit by receiving one, please contact:
