A morning Advent Reflection took place at our Nanaimo Trinity Catholic Parish on December 12th, 2019. The newly formed Trinity CWL Council invited members of our parish as well as St. Peter’s (Nanaimo) Catholic Church members, to join us after Mass to take time during this busy Christmas season to stop and reflect on the reading of LUKE 10:38-42, the reflection of “MARTHA AND MARY”.

Last fall, at the urging of the Bishop of Victoria, Gary Gordon, I contacted Father Dino Villadiego, pastor of the North Island Parishes regarding evaluating the interest of his parishioners in establishing a Catholic Women’s League Council within those parishes. Father Dino responded positively to have two members of the League travel with him, as he celebrated Mass in each of his four parishes.
