ANNOUNCEMENTS

Dear St. Joseph's CWL Members, Thank you so much for your generous donation again this Christmas. Not only do your members provide financial help, but we see many of you week in and week out at our Food bank. What more could we ask for?

Members of the CWL Your mass card to celebrate Joan's life is deepy appreciated. It's easy to say thank you, but it's harder to convey the heartfelt gratitude felt today. Your thoughtfulness means more than words can ever say. We would also like to thank you very much for the lovely luncheon you put on for mom's funderal. She loved your group of special women!! I imagine it was hard to serve on such a sad day. With sincere thanks, The Tax family

As president of Catholic Missions In Canada, I express my gratitude to the CWL., ST. Joseph's Council's gift in the amount of $100.00. The philanthrope nature of your institution is much appreciated and we thank you for thinking of us. The CWL, St. Joseph's Council is a valuable friend of CMIC and its stakeholders in Canadian mission dioceses and eparchies. Through this support, CMIC allocats between $4-5M each year to sustain missionaries, repair and maintain buildings and properties, train lay leaders, provide sacramental preparation and educate seminarians. Without the help of our donors, the programs would faulter. Please thank your Board on our behalf for their support of the missionary efforts to keep the Catholic faith alive in remote regions of Canada. May God bless you and reward you. Yours in Christ, Rev. David Reilander President

Your kind expression of sympathy is deeply appreciated and gratefully acknowledged by the family of Helen Connolly. Thank you to CWL, for Mass card, Honour Guard and Luncheon Friday March 24 on behalf of Helen. From Alfred & family
