PDCCW Board Meets with Bishop Tylka

On December 6, 2021, the members of the Peoria Diocesan Council of Catholic Women met with Bishop Louis Tylka to give updates on our ministry efforts and to inquire about how we can assist him as he prepares to take over the reins fully upon Bishop Daniel Jenky's retirement in March.  Jennifer Willems, Associate Editor of The Catholic Post, was also in attendance. She wrote an excellent feature article, which can be found HERE.

If you would like to serve on the Board, or if you have any questions about specific Council projects, contact PDCCW President Mary Ann Hughes.

Happy New Year!

On behalf of the Peoria Diocesan Council of Catholic Women, we pray you have a wonderful year filled with blessings and joy!

We Appreciate Volunteers!

One week ago, many of us gathered at the Cathedral of St. Mary of the Immaculate Conception in Peoria to hold our annual Volunteer Appreciation Mass. We also honored our Blessed Mother with a May Crowning during the recitation of the Rosary. We'd like to thank Jennifer Willems for covering the event with a wonderful article and  pictures in The Catholic Post.  You can read the article by clicking HERE. 

But for a little taste, here is a group shot of this year's honorees:

To all parish volunteers, THANK YOU for serving Christ and His Church! 

He is Risen!

 On behalf of the entire PDCCW Board, Happy Easter!
