Mrs. J. J. Gardiner of Ilderton,
President of the Diocesan Execu-
• tive,_opened the meeting with the
League Prayer followed by Mrs.
Wm. Regier, ChurCh Life Conven-
er with the Bible reading.
,Theme of the meeting was "to
love is to serve".
Members were welcomed by Fr.
A. P. Spencer, Diocesan Direc-
tor; Mrs: J. J. Gardiner., Dioces=
an President; Ft. E. J. Dentinger ,
C.R. , pastor of St. Joseph''s,
Kingsbiidge and Mrs. John How-
and , President of St. JOsePh's
Council, Kingsbridge, who also
chaired the meeting.
Miss Rita Ouellette, Diocesan
kecording Secretary, showed a
most interesting and informative
film strip entitled , "Getting Work
Done Through Groups", People,
grouped together do important'
things. Leadership is a responsib-
ility and an honour. Each mem-
' ber has something to contribute
some talent - 'something to enrich
the group. We all have lirnita .-
tions. Hidden factors influence
6, example, turmoil with teen-
. • agers , lack of money; sickness;
etc. Some falsely think that
compromise and a difference of
opinion are signs of weakness, and
should be avoided. Creative
compromise is more than good
will. It takes knowledge skill
arid .people. There are two types '
to be found in a group (1) spon-
taneous theSe people are free
wheeling and give freedom to ex-
plore (2) evaluative -these people
use ideas that are'analyzed and
tested before being
'presented.. People react different-
ly in these climates. 'Both kinds
ate welcome in a group. The
group is enhanced by the know-
ledge, skills and values of all
members.
Fr. Spencer in his talk to the
members emphasized the import-. •
ance of-each member in each '
bouncil. All are really needed to
help to work for God and country.;
True Christian womanhood is pro-.
moted in home and family
life by women at the local,
national and international level.
Our theme throughout the year
is "to love is to serve". How can
I best promote the league and its
ideals? Each member is needed
and should attempt to capture the
feeling and realization of what it
is to love and,serve. 'St.' Paul
said, "I am foolish for Christ".
Because we love God we want to .
serve. A single strand of'string
is easily broken but it can be '
woven into a cable. So also there
is strength to be found in, the
membership of 100,00 ladies
across Canada. The national
organization is as strong as each
individual member. 'Fr. Spencer
expressed the need not only for'.
more members but for enthusiasm
and hard work. The C. W.L. can
do much to-promote worthwhile
projects for Church and commun-
ity.
The Diocese of London has
much, to give at the
provincial level.' It is not so
much a question of what can the
league do for me but what can'
I do' for the league?
. .
Individual groups were formed
to discuss questions of intei!est.
These included such questions
as, how to interest young people
to become more actively involv-
ed. Is it more effective to work
as a group tather than as individu-
als? Should one big project be
undertaken or a number of
projects?
At noon a buffet style lunch
was served by the catering com-
mittee of the Kingsbridge
After lunch a member from each
discussion group reported to the
group as a whole on what transpir-
ed in their individual discussions.
In this way many excellent sug-
gestions and ideas were put forth.
A report was given hY-each—
convener of a standing committee
These included Organization, :
Mrs. P. J. Belanger, Windsor;
Church Life , Mrs. William
'Regier , Dashwood; Christian Fam-
ily Life, Mrs. R. M. Bingham,
Amherstburg; Communications .
and Public Relations, Mrs. T. A.
Gerski, Harrow; Social Economic/
and Civic Life, Mrs. Frank Loh-
uis , Mount Elgin; Social Action,
Mrs. Lyle Kirby,. Ridgetown and
Cultural Life , Mrs. Lawrence
Howard , London.
The informative and worthwhile
day came to a close when Ft.
Spencer led the group in prayer.
