35 years for Grand Bend CWS
By Roberta Walker
GRAND BEND - The Immacu-
late Heart of Mary Council of the
Catholic Women's League in Grand
Bend celebrated its 35th anniver-
sary at its November 12 meeting.
The meeting was chaired by pres-
ident Cathy Vrogle. First -vice
president Grada Vlemmix read the
roll call and stated how many years
each member had been with the
Grand Bend Council.
Charter members who had been
there when the council was formed
on November 25 1956 were given
special notice and the list of presi-
dents and of deceased 'members
was read.
The original charter was re-
framed and will eventually hang in
the new parish hall which has yet to
be built.
In the business, December 8 is
Pro -Life Day and the CWL will
take part in a special mass at 11
a.m. and Pro -Life literature and
Christmas cards will be available at
alt masses that weekend.
The CWL has decided all money
raised by the cash register tape col-
lection this year will go to buy food
for needy families in the communi-
ty this Christmas.
The collection of food, toys and
gifts, White Gift Sunday, has been
designated as December 14-15. All
members of the parish will be
asked to bring something to the
weekend masses and the children
will carry the gifts to the altar to
share Christmas with the poor. The
Lioness collect the donations for
their annual Christmas baskets for
the entire community. A list of
Christmas baskets and gifts to sick
and shut-ins of the parish was orga-
nized and Toni Vandenberk will
look after these gifts.
