Charity, Work & Loyalty

The motto of the Catholic Women’s league (CWL) is Charity, Work and Loyalty. This group of women is a vital part of any Parish and membership is open to all Catholic women.

Some of the league’s objectives are: to unite Catholic women in their service for God, the Church, the Family and the country; to assist with Parish work; to consolidate Catholic action among Catholic women in defence of Catholic principles; to promote fellowship among its women; to engage in social welfare activities.

The Catholic Women’s League aims to a spiritual growth of members and at a diocesan level undertake various work in the  Welfare Sector,  including Family Welfare, Adoption  and supporting the Mary Immaculate Queen Centre for preschool children.  At parish level they assist  with parish fundraising and community activities.

The Maryvale branch  always  welcomes new members  who can then participate in a more meaningful way in the life of the parish and have a sense of belonging.. Women wishing to join can contact the president or secretary or simply come to the monthly meeting after the 8am Mass on the first Saturday of the month. The meetings are held in the Parish Centre.
