​Celebrating 86 Years!!!

​Council of Catholic Women/AD

      In 1938 Bishop Edward Mooney (later to be made Cardinal of the Archdiocese of Detroit) invited the women of the Diocese of Detroit to affiliate with the National Council of Catholic Women as a Federation of existing organizations in the leadership role of Catholic Action.  The first all-day meeting was held in the Book Cadillac Hotel on Saturday, March 18, 1939.  Each decade of Council’s existence has been marked with significant accomplishments.

​Mission Statement Council of Catholic Women/AD
     Our Mission as members of the Council of Catholic Women, Archdiocese ​of Detroit, is to bring women together to share their faith; to grow spiritually and to unite in performing works of charity both in our community ​and abroad.

History of the CCW/AD Logo   
     In 1973, the CCW/AD Board of Directors decided that they should have a new official Logo. Sister Mary Ignatius Denay, an exceptionally outstanding person, art instructor at Mercy High, Farmington, was contacted.
   She supplied the design which means:
a)     The letters CCW-AD   Council of Catholic Women Archdiocese of Detroit
b)    The cross is symbolic of sacrifice.
c)     The double circle is all inclusive of the never-ending circle of needs to be met by the circle of volunteers.

​PRAYER TO OUR LADY OF GOOD COUNSEL




​
God of heavenly wisdom,
You have given us Mary, Mother of Jesus
to be our guide and Counselor.
Grant that we may always seek
her motherly help in this life and so
enjoy her blessed presence in
the life to come.
O Mother of Good Counsel,
Patroness of the National Council  of
Catholic Women,  intercede for us, that
we may be wise, courageous and 
loving leaders of the Church.
Help us, dear Mother, to know the
mind of Jesus, your Son. 
May the Holy Spirit fill us with reverence
for God’s creation, and compassion
for  all God’s children. 
May our labors of Love on earth
enhance the reign of God and
may  God’s gifts of faith and living
hope prepare us for the fullness of the
world to come. Amen.
