The Commission for Women sponsors many activities . . .

The Commission for Women recently sponsored its annual Secretaries Day, a day of appreciation for our diocesan parish secretaries.

In September of 2006 we held the Kickoff Breakfast for the Gather Us In 2007 Conference. Representatives from each parish in the diocese were invited to the breakfast on September 15 at St. Mary's Parish in Shrewsbury. More extensive information will be shared following the breakfast.

The Kick-Off Breakfast on September 15, 2006 for the Gather Us In Conference was a great success! Come and see for yourself . . .

The Unity Breakfast is held in the 'off years' between conferences, also at St. Mary's in Shrewsbury. Our last breakfast in October of 2008 featured speaker, singer/songwriter and author Jaymie Stuart Wolfe from St. Maria Goretti's in Lynnfield. Jaymie spoke on "The Feminine Face of Holiness" and included several of her own compositions. We hope to book Jaymie for a workshop at the Gather Us In 2009 Conference on November 7, 2009.

Periodically, women from the Commission contribute stories to the Worcester Diocesan newspaper, The Catholic Free Press regarding women's issues, the Conference, and other stories. Mary Donovan wrote a fine story on Stewardship which you can see in the May 25, 2007 issue.
