With the exception of the reference you made to it in another thread, this is the first I've ever heard of it.

There isn't one in my parish, or any parish I've ever been to. :unsure: If the (old) women around here are involved in anything, it's usually Legion of Mary. Or the altar linen society or something. (I'm being serious, I think that's what it's called.)

Is it an American group?

I think we have CWL - Catholic Womens League. And yes, thats usually all old ladies.

I knew you spoke truth, but I didn't realize how horrifying the truth was!

We had one but it has been disbanded, and yes, they were all old ladies who were really nothing more than a group of friends who liked to socialize. They are now operating under a different name, same click.

We don't even have a parish. :| I don't think we had one at our old parish. I think they had something like "Catholic Daughters" or something like that, but I know that wasn't just old ladies. But I do know that my grandma used to belong to CCW, fitting the description of a group of older women whose children are all grown and have grandchildren.

Catholic Daughters here is pretty much exactly like the CCW (my gramma is in CDA). lol. the CCW circles here are constantly trying to get young women involved, but pretty much no one i know is interested (nor am i interested) because of busy schedules, work schedules, kids' schedules, husband schedules, etc.

edit, here's [url="http://www.catholicdaughters.org/"]CDA's website[/url]. slightly better than the national CCW website, but still. :twitch:
