LADIES CHRISTMAS POT LUCK DINNER
All ladies of the parish 16 years of age and older, and their friends, are invited to the CWL ANNUAL CHRISTMAS POTLUCK DINNER on Wednesday, Dec 5, 2012. The evening will begin at 6:00 pm with a special mass followed by the best smorgasboard available, then some much needed relaxation while, back by popular demand, St. Basil's own Joan Minnery will entertain us with her amazing voice and sparkling personality. And don't forget the prizes.
All you have to do is bring a prepared main or side dish or dessert to share with everyone. Also bring your own plate, mug and cutlery.
And one of the best parts of a potluck dinner is that we all take our dirty dishes and containers home to be washed. So be sure to have a plastic bag with you to carry them home in. That way no one will be stuck in the kitchen rushing around to keep up with dishwashing and will be able to enjoy the evening as well.
Hmmm, what a good night it should be..............

We need more crafters as we would love to donate a shawl to all of our sick parishioners mentioned at mass or we are informed of. There is never any fee as it is the mandate of the Prayer Shawl Minstry that shawls only be given away.

Welcome to the new year of St Basil's CWL Blog. We encourage you to come back often to search for meeting dates and times, especially changes to the schedule. Or you can check the weekly church bulletin for updates.
We had out first General meeting in September and discussed possible events the upcoming year with about 15 in attendance with Wine and Cheese afterwards.
One project has to do with helping a St Basil's parishioner become the owner of the Habitat for Humanity home in 2012. We will help in any way we can to make this happen and would love to see the entire parish get involved.
We also are joining St John's College with their Hal-O-Ween for Hunger food drive Oct 31st. Students will be collecting food from across the city and bringing it to St Basil's hall for pick up the next day by St Vincent de Paul. This could be the largest food drive in the city and we are thrilled to be involved.
We are providing white ribbons at the back of the church Oct 15 & Oct 16 to support the WRAP (White Ribbons Against Pornography) campaign fighting pornography. Please take one to wear for the week to increase awareness.
Unfortunately there will not be a General Meeting or Youth Wii night in October. Circumstances beyond our control made this necessary.
Please feel free to ask questions or add inspiring, humourous, helpful hints or comments, always in good taste, to our Blog. We look forward to it.
