All Catholic women are encouraged to attend, regardless if you have Christian Women’s group or not.
The Deanery represents ALL Catholic women of the area parishes, which thereby
encompasses parish affiliate groups such as Christian Mothers/Women, Daughters of
Isabella, Seven Sisters Apostolates, Hearts of Faith, Mission and Quilting Groups. As
per Bishop Peter W Bartholomew in 1957, who proclaimed all Baptized Catholic women
age 19 and over are members of CCW.
We are affiliates of DCCW (Diocesan) and NCCW (National). The National Council has
now developed programs for high school and college young women to be members
also.
