THE PATRON SAINT OF THE CWL
Novena Prayer to St Margaret Clitherow

Dear Lord Jesus, give us the courage and grace not only to live holy lives, but to be willing to die holy deaths as St. Margaret of Clitherow did. We thank you, dear Lord, for the examples of your holy saints. May we follow in their footsteps. In Your holy name we pray.

Amen.

Become a member of the League...

Lord of Life, bless and be with all members of the Catholic Women’s League....

I belong to the CWL.

But at times I feel I would drop out.

But God said  “NO! You belong”.

So then I go to a conference and I see all the CWL people up the front and hear all they do and all the help they give so many people- the sick , the lonely, the hungry and it goes on - all that they do.

I come home and I feel so upbeat and say I belong.

I then try to help the odd lonely person in my own area and then I say again-

I belong to the Catholic Women’s League.

Catholic Women's League Prayer

Come, O Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of Your faithful,
and kindle in them the fire of Your love.
Send forth Your Spirit and they shall be created.
And You shall renew the earth.
O God who teaches the hearts of the faithful by
the light of Your Holy Spirit, grant that in the
same Spirit we may always be truly wise
and ever rejoice in His consolation.
Through Christ Our Lord. Amen
Direct we beseech You, O Lord, our actions by
Your Holy Inspiration and carry them on by Your
gracious assistance, that every prayer and work of
of ours may always begin from You
and by You be happily ended.
Through Christ Our Lord. Amen
