A Little History
Saturday, March 22, 2025, marked 70 years since the establishment of the Catholic Women’s League at St. Pius X Parish. Our parish was founded in 1951 at the time of the beatification of Pope Pius X and was the first in the world to be named after him. By the time the church was built in 1954, Pope Pius X had been canonized, and our church was then re-named St. Pius X Parish.
The CWL has contributed its benevolent activities to the parish community unceasingly since 1955. Besides its members’ many volunteer hours donated to the life of the parish, it organizes two large and beloved events every year: the Spring Bake Sale and the Christmas Bazaar and Silent Auction. The CWL donates almost all the funds it raises to local charities and also donates to the parish. The dinner celebration was joined by Fr. Mani and by Agnes Passee, Toronto Regional Chair of the CWL.
This year's Catholic Women's League Christmas Bazaar was the most successful in recent memory. CWL…
