Our Membership fees for 2023 are $30 / person.

Our per capita fees to other levels of the League are:	National	$25.00
	National Insurance	.50
	Provincial	6.00
	Diocesan	4.00
	Calgary Region	~.50
	Total	$36.00

• Because we are aware that many members have limited incomes, we have set our fees at less than what we pay, and plan to fund raise to cover the difference. If you are able to afford more than the set fee, please make a donation to cover the full per capita cost (or more to help us cover our other membership costs such as member pins, service awards and assistance to those in need).
• If you wish to support our work with your time and other contributions but cannot afford the full $30 membership fee, please contact our .

Every member of the CWL is required to have a signed agreement to model code of conduct (signed agreement) on file in the Parish Office.

• This basically means those who are active with CWL and if you help the church in any way (driving another parishioner to the church or help in the church / hall itself for activities and events) then one must be signed. Once one has been signed then it lasts for years.
• This is a requirement from Diocesan plus, from a legal stand point, if Corpus Christi should ever be audited they can confidently say that our CWL Group has “complied”.

National Bursary Fund

HISTORY and PURPOSE

In 1988, the League received two generous donations in response to the call for lay formation in Pope John Paul II’s Exhortation, Christifideles Laici. In light of the expressed desire of the League to encourage members’ service “For God and Canada”, the national executive agreed by motion that these donations be used to establish a bursary fund.

The bursary fund is used to provide financial assistance to members needing it to pursue studies, courses, seminars, workshops and diploma/degree programs in areas of

• spiritual growth
• adult faith formation
• youth ministry
• ministry to patients in palliative care
• ministry to shut-ins
• parliamentary procedure
• literacy tutoring

Courses must be pursued in Canada.

CRITERIA and GUIDELINES

1. A member may apply in her third consecutive year of service and any year thereafter.
2. Applicants must demonstrate an active involvement in pastoral services and be prepared to serve the church in their province, diocese or parish.
3. Programs may be taken prior to bursary acceptance, but must be taken within one year following acceptance.
4. For more information, see the application form
