New Membership Campaign


As we all pray for our own bishop and priests, I thought we might also include the nine bishops of our province in our CCW prayers. I was learned about an article that came from the Catholic News Service about a new website - Rosary for the Bishop. You can check it out at http://rosaryforthebishop.org/ People can sign up, indicate a bishop(s) they wish to pray for and request reminders. I had been wanting to introduce prayers for the bishops of our province as a caring gesture from the women of the CCW.

The bishops of our province include:

Most Reverend Joseph E. Kurtz, D.D., Archbishop of Louisville
Most Reverend Thomas Kelly, D.D., Retired Archbishop of Louisville
Most Reverend Roger J. Foys, D.D., Bishop of Covington
Most Reverend Richard F. Stika, D.D., Bishop of Knoxville
Most Reverend Ronald W. Gainer, D.D., M. Div., JCL, Bishop of Lexington
Most Reverend J. Terry Steib, S.V.D., D.D., Bishop of Memphis
Most Reverend David Choby, D.D., Bishop of Nashville
Most Reverend William F. Medley, D.D., Bishop of Owensboro
Most Reverend John J. McRaith, D.D., Retired Bishop of Owensboro

NCCW Leadership Training Development Team


Suzanne Erpenbach, Member of NCCW LTD Committee

New NCCW Leadership Program Introduced

Members asked and NCCW responded with the creation and introduction of a new Leadership Training Development (LTD) Program at the Columbus Convention. The new LTD program focuses emphasis on building strong foundations, leadership skills, membership and communication. Each program will be presented in a practical, down-to-Earth format for use in both Council and daily living. Instruction, exercises, scriptural references and discussions will be incorporated into each presentation. Jane Carter, KDCCW Vice-President, and Suzanne Erpenbach, KDCCW Past President, are members of the development team. Read the article in the new November/December 2007 Catholic Woman magazine and watch for other articles in future issues for more program details and dates.
