Our Lady of the Rosary CWL Council got together with Father Dean Henderson and planted their CWL Centennial tree at Hatley, Memorial Gardens. Not only were our members excited to be together on such a wonderful spring day, they hope this cherry tree will bring joyful memories of their council and parish to all who enjoy the gardens for a long time to come. Yes, in Langford, BC, January 29th is springtime!

Our CWL Sisters at Our Lady of Grace Catholic Church on Salt Spring Island decided to add to the beauty of their island in a special way. Our members celebrated our League’s 100th Anniversary on November 1st, 2020, by planning rhododendrons at their church for all to enjoy.

They want to share God’s natural beauty with you through these photo.

Dear Friends: I would like to make a comment about the difficulty I had in posting our Diocesan CWL Present Christa's Christmas greetings.

“It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair ...”

The members of St. Patrick’s CWL Council (Victoria) may not be able to cure COVID 19, but they certainly know how to spread Christmas Cheer around to their isolated League sisters. Our gang at St. Pat’s cooked up a mess of cookies and distributed them along with Catholic calendars and prayer books to our isolated people at their houses and nursing homes. Berny did the baking and packaged them up professionally while Susie N. and Nancy S. delivered them.

Way to go, St. Pat’s and thank you, Lorrie V. for sharing this with us!

Our CWL Council at Saint Edward’s Church, in Duncan, B.C., recently celebrated the 100th Anniversary of our League on November 23, 2020 by planting one hundred King Alfred daffodil bulbs! Now, that’s a lot of work, so the Queen of Angels kindergarten class came out to help plant them. Talk about a lot of energy and enthusiasm!
