IWIN Signature Bracelet

March 2023

IWIN has made a decision to create a special Signature Bracelet in honour of National Human Trafficking Awareness Day for those who may want to support the work of IWIN and survivors of human trafficking.

This bracelet will use consistent colouring to keep it distinct from the bracelets currently distributed to victims and prayer partners.

Saskatoon Diocesan CWL - President's Update

Audrey Zimmerman

February 2023

Many of our parish councils became active last fall and have resumed activities in a slightly changed manner that Covid or health concerns dictate.

We are pleased that the IWIN (I’m Worth It Now) project continues to be a source of help to the human trafficking victims at Hope Restored. Our CWL councils provide prayer partners and financial assistance to help cover the cost of the filled backpacks delivered to the victims.

The Saskatoon Diocesan Council is happy to report the refurbishment of the grotto at Queen’s House Retreat and Renewal Centre in Saskatoon. The grotto and altar area was donated by the council in 1965 and needed cleaning and repair. The hands on repair was done by the Denis Mahoney council of the Knights of Columbus in Saskatoon. Diocesan executive members in charge of this project were Mary Kehrig and Yvonne Wiesner. We thank all who made the grotto beautiful again.

The CWL Clothing Depot continues to be a source of affordable clothing and household items in Saskatoon and a vital source of donations for charities that help the poor. The volunteers there make all this possible and are a valued and valuable resource.

Our Diocesan convention will be held in Foam Lake this year hosted by Christ the King Council on Saturday April 29, 2023. Our day will be shorter this year as we will finish the day at 3:00 PM with mass and installation of officers. It is always a day filled with joy at seeing our CWL sisters and renewing friendships.

This is just a bit about what is happening in our CWL councils in the Saskatoon Diocese.
