The CWL is a great organization, national with some 1300 councils at the local parish level. I have been a member for over 25 years and have always felt the love and support from my sisters in the league as well as enjoyed the spiritual development in my own life as a member.
Today is Day 1 CWL National Convention in Edmonton and I am privileged to be a part of it. Last night, the convention opened with mass at St. Joseph's Basilica, packed to the rafters and hot enough to boil eggs. The choir was amazing and even though I was seated at the rear of a side section behind a pillar, I had a view of the bread and wine during the consecration. After mass, the opening remarks and introductions were brief, thank goodness. We were then invited downstairs to O'Leary Hall for a splendid reception. I met up with dear friends, Lynne Oye, Mary Antonio, and Lucille Partington. We chatted and caught up briefly and as we were in the last few remaining, they gave me a ride back to my hotel.
I am looking forward to a great day!
