Mission Statement: The Catholic Women’s League of Canada is a national organization rooted in gospel values calling its members to holiness through service to the people of God.
The Regina Mundi Catholic Women's League (CWL) Council was established in 1961. We meet monthly during the year on the first Tuesday of the month.
The CWL promotes spiritual and personal development for catholic women in the parish.
Throughout its years of existence the Regina Mundi Council has enhanced parish life by promoting the establishment of the Blessed Sacrament Chapel for daily prayer, honouring the shrine to our Blessed Virgin Mary, and installing the stained glass window depicting the Annunciation of Our Lord.
The CWL hosts the following activities for the parish:
• An annual day retreat for women
• Collection for Canadian Food for Children during lenten time
• The May Crowning of our Lady’s statue
• Financial support for community groups such as the Good Shepherd Centres and Birthright Hamilton
