Membership Brochures: Calgary Diocesan CWL has made membership brochures available to all of our councils. If you haven't picked up a supply for your parish, please contact me and we'll make arrangements to bring them to the upcoming Regional meeting in October.
Online Membership: I have been advised that the online membership program with National Office is up and running again. If your council isn't using this, perhaps it's time to consider doing so. I can provide you with a complete package on how to get started, so please be in touch with me if I can help.
Annual Reports: Information about the online Annual Reporting will be coming out soon, so watch for the weekly emails or newsletter for more information. This will be the 3rd year of electronical reporting, and we're hoping more and more councils will come on board.
National Development Fund: This is a fund to assist in the organization of a parish council; assist a council to promote League leadership training or other development workshops; or promote the League development through spiritual development. Please contact me for more information.
Strategic Plan: At National Convention in Winnipeg we were presented with an update on the progress, and those in attendance received "The Catholic Women's League of Canada Plans Strategically" booklet, which outlines the five year plan. Every council president will be receiving this booklet in the mail soon. Note: No changes to the election structure this year. Direction will come from the implementation team in the future.
Catch the Fire! Workshops: A Catch the Fire workshop is being held in Calgary on Saturday, November 3rd @ Sacred Heart Parish. This is open to all councils who would like to invite women to join the League, or to councils who are just looking to "Catch the Fire!" It will give you the knowledge and tools to learn more about the League, help you to love the League, feel the sisterhood and experience the joy of being a League member. Please join us. A registration form is included in this package.
If you want any more information about any of the above, please contact me @ or 403-828-4191. I'm here to assist you.
Your Sister in the League,
Jan Myhre
