NATIONAL CWL MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE VISIT TO THE ARCH DIOCESE OF CAPE TOWN’S CWL 95th ANNIVERSARY

We arrived on the 24th of September at our Lady Of Perpetual Help in Durbanville Cape Town.

Mass was celebrated by his Grace Archbishop Sithembele Sipuka . His reading came from the book of Ecclesiastes chapter 1 verse 2-11 which states,: “Vanity of vanities, saith the teacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity” He then gave a touching homily asking the question “How are we treating others?”

Immediately after mass we celebrated the 95th anniversary. We were overwhelmed by the generosity and effort displayed by these ladies in hosting such a lavish event. We were touched by the amount of former National Presidents who attended the celebration and other sodalities like St Anne’s etc

The vibrant ladies of the Arch Diocese of Cape Town under the leadership of their dynamic Diocesan President Rebecca Weir extended a sincere heartfelt welcome to all of us.

The National President Sheila Thysse wished them well on this auspicious occasion and emphasized that we are looking forward to their centenary celebration in 5 years time.

Well Done Arch Diocese of Cape Town CWL. We as the National Committee are so incredibly proud of what you have achieved.

NATIONAL CWL MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE VISIT TO THE DIOCESE OF PRETORIA RECENTLY

On Friday, 24th July, we had supper with the Executive of the Diocese of Pretoria.

We arrived at the Archdiocese of Pretoria on Saturday 25th July where the 76th Annual General Meeting hosted at Ga-Rankuwa Mme Parish were held.

The vibrant ladies of the Diocese of Pretoria under the leadership and of their dynamic diocesan president Ms Lemao Modise extended a heartfelt welcome to us.

We attended Mass led by Archbishop Dabula Mpako.

We were impressed by the AGM that transpired in a methodical manner.

Our National CWL President, Sheila Thysse addressed the Diocese of Pretoria diligently.

Our National Treasurer, Pauline Potgieter, motivated the Diocese to register for the National Conference, as we are almost at capacity and won’t be able to take late entries….

We were touched by our guest speaker, Dr Nomsa Mathonsi, emphasizing words spoken by Jesus in Matthew 25:40.

“Whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers, you do unto me.”

We had lunch together and were spoiled by their generosity.

Well done, Diocese of Pretoria CWL!
