Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the national 100th year of the Catholic Women’s League annual convention being held in Montreal, Que., will be celebrated virtually.
Different CWL councils have been planting trees or shrubs to commemorate this milestone. Notre Dame de Lourdes CWL planted a shrub in front of the rectory Sunday, Aug.9, following the celebration of 11 a.m. mass. President Betty Znack, Father Cuong (parish priest and chaplain of our council) several members of the CWL and Notre Dame Parish were present. Fr. Cuong blessed the shrub.
Congratulatory remarks were offered by Parish Pastoral Council chairperson, Glen Gantefoer, on the occasion of the tree planting ceremony by CWL to celebrate the 100 year anniversary.
