CWL PURSE PROJECT 2024
The CWL expresses their gratitude and appreciation to the parishioners of Mary, Mother of the Church for their time and generosity, which led to a successful, first 'Purse Project' during this Lenten season. The goal was to provide Willow Place with 50 purses and because of your generous contributions, 63 purses were filled and delivered to Willow Place on Thursday, March 21. May the Risen Lord continue to bring joy to you during this Lenten season.
The Catholic Women’s League of Mary, Mother of the Church extend a big thank you to everyone who volunteered with the perogy making project. Approximately 240 dozen perogies were made and customers were still left disappointed. A special thank you to two male youth and a male parishioner who were a tremendous help. The monies raised will go to support local charities and an offering to the church.
