I am pleased to announce that Sunday, April 21, is Archdiocesan Council of Catholic Women (ACCW) Sunday. This date has been chosen for its proximity to the feast day of Our Lady of Good Counsel, their patroness. The ACCW supports the goals of the Archdiocese by empowering and educating Catholic women in spirituality, leadership, and service. A few ways in which this mission is realized is by the ACCW sponsorship of the annual Beauty in Christ Women’s Conference; their support of our seminarians, newly ordained priests and religious; and their coordination of numerous service projects. Thank you for your continued support of the Archdiocesan Council of Catholic Women.
Sincerely yours in Christ, Most Rev. Thomas R. Zinkula Archbishop of Dubuque
