Notre Dame CWL is engaged in the ongoing battle to stop child pornography and trafficking.
At the masses Oct. 29 and 30 the CWL members conducted the 鈥淧ornography Hurts鈥� campaign. Individual postcards to the Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada Jody Wilson-Raybould and Gerry Ritz, Battlefords MP, were given to each person for signatures.
They were collected and taken to Ritz鈥檚 office to be forwarded to Parliament.
The Notre Dame Parish Fall Supper was held Oct. 23. With the combined efforts of the CWL and Notre Dame parishioners about 500 people were fed. Our thanks and gratitude goes out to all who worked in any way to make this supper a success. The help from the students of John Paul II was much appreciated.
The CWL fall workshop was hosted by Notre Dame council this year and was held Nov. 5 in St. Bernadette Hall at Notre Dame Church. Twenty-seven women attended representing St. Vital Parish Battleford, Cut Knife and Notre Dame councils.
In keeping with the theme, 鈥淥ne Heart, One Voice, One Mission,鈥� Fr. Doug Jeffrey led us in discussion using scripture readings.
It was an informative and thought-provoking workshop, giving members insight into how the content of the scriptures can be applied to individual lives. Fr. Doug celebrated mass at 11:30 a.m. followed by lunch.
Following the last session, discussion president Shirley Lamoureax addressed the gathering. Those attending then received a special blessing from Fr. Doug.
