Catholic Women Organisation

VISION

The Catholic Women's Organization is an umbrella organization where all members are a light to the world and reflect the love, unity, and peace of the Kingdom of God. In our parish, its first official election was held in November 2016, which brought to light an executive that had Mrs Kate Adigo as the president until 2022, when another election was conducted, and a new executive came on board with Mrs Anne Korie as the president until date.

MISSION

The organisation's mission is to rally and motivate members to utilise and harness their energy and resources for evangelisation and transformation of society by fulfilling their roles in the family, Church, and society in the footsteps of Mary, the mother of our Lord Jesus Christ, for through Mary our Mother we succeed.
