We were chartered on October 8, 1955 shortly after the founding of Corpus Christi church, primarily to raise funds to build the church. Supporting our parish has been a priority ever since, and our members are active in many ministries including choirs, Eucharistic Ministers, greeters, Proclaimers, Ushers... We are especially grateful to have a Life Member to share her knowledge, wisdom and experience.

Following the National restructuring in the summer of 2022, our Council decided that the 3 pillars of Faith, Service and Social Justice did not adequately reflect our priorities and we added a fourth: FELLOWSHIP. We start our business meetings with a time of fellowship. Our year end potluck is another opportunity for members and their friends and family to gather in fellowship while supporting our parish St Vincent de Paul group with in-kind donations. We enjoy an annual retreat at Mt St Francis.

Service:

Every spring we coordinate a clothing / textile recycling drive.

We provide funeral reception services in our parish and support our deceased members with Honor Guards and Mass Intentions.

Fundraisers:

Our major fundraisers are in the fall: selling Purdys chocolates, and an annual roast beef supper which also provides participants with a time of lively fellowship. These help us support many endeavors close to our members' hearts including improvements to our parish hall, a bursary for a first year undergraduate student, L'Arche, Meals on Wheels, Father Lacombe, and St Mary's University. See our website for a more complete list.

We also serve our parish and the surrounding community with the sale of religious articles to support their spiritual journey.

Membership:

Our membership fee is $30 / year. We would love to have you join us. Come to one of our general meetings on the second Tuesday of the month, and get to know us...
