Welcome!
Precious Blood Catholic Women’s League received their first charter in 1962 and reorganized in April 1982 with their current charter. Precious Blood CWL meets on the second Tuesday of the month (not during July and August) at 7pm in the parish hall at 200 Sanders St W, Exeter. We warmly welcome any woman aged 16 years of age and older to join us in living out our Catholic calling by sharing our gifts and serving our community. We are a sisterhood of women who share a common faith and try valiantly to put that faith into action by reaching out and supporting our parish and our community. Sometimes that looks like fundraising through bake sales or Coffee Sundays. Sometimes that looks like prayer service to our Blessed Mother or collecting for the local food bank. It is always with our faith first. We encourage you to come to a meeting or two or three and see if we are a good fit for you, how you want to live out your faith and use your gifts. We would love to see you!

Welcome!
We welcome all women of the parish age 16 and up to join us in living in faith, service, social justice, and sisterhood. We are a united voice of Catholic women across Canada providing faith-based opportunities for social interaction, personal development, and community service.
We meet the second Tuesday of the month in the Parish Hall from March through to December. Please join us. And if you are unable to attend meetings, consider a spiritual membership and pray for our efforts.
In the last 100 years, the CWL has passed approximately 1,000 resolutions on various issues. It is the only women’s organization in Canada that meets annually with various federal ministers and elected officials. League members began the process of creating change in society at a time when many provinces did not yet allow women to vote.
