Learn and become a member of the Catholic Daughters of America – Ave Maria #1011 in Appleton
My name is Joyce Luckow and I am the regent of the Catholic Daughters of the Americas Ave Maria #1011 based at St Pius Church in Appleton. We are working to make the world a better place to live as well as enhancing our spirituality.
Catholic Daughters of the Americas was started in 1903 by the Knights of Columbus because they knew that behind every good man there is a woman, and they needed our help. Catholic Daughters is the oldest and largest Catholic woman’s organization in the Americas with 65,000 members. We are a service group that supports our parish, our priests, seminarians as well as the people around us. We serve meals at Pillars, the homeless shelter, collect food for Loaves and Fishes and ring bells for the Salvation Army.
Four years ago, a Junior Catholic Daughters group was formed in Kaukauna. We adopt a nonprofit each year and help them reach one of their goals. The first year with several fundraising events, and with the help of some adult supporters we were able to raise $5,000 to put air conditioning in Kaukauna’s St Vincent DePaul’s store. The next year we adopted Lincoln’s Foster Closet and helped with their mission of helping kids in foster care with their basic needs as many times they leave their home with nothing but the clothes on their back. We raised money and purchased a trailer for them to pick up donated furniture for these children.
Last year, VIDA opened their home for pregnant women in Darboy. The air conditioning units in the building did not work and we raised $5,000 to help with the $12,000 cost of repair!
We would like to invite you to join our group. We meet once a month from September to May. We are working to move our meeting site to a more central place and inviting any young women, 4th grade through high school in the Fox Valley to come join us!

Registration is open for the Little Flowers Girls’ Club at St. John Nepomucene
Registration is currently open through Friday, September 13th for the Little Flowers Girls’ Club at St. John Nepomucene! Little Flowers is open to girls in grades kindergarten through 3rd in the parish, schools and the local area.
St. John Nepomucene offers a modified version of Little Flowers, which is a Catholic girls group centered on learning virtues by studying individual saints. Virtues are learned through presentations, crafts and activities. Each year a “wreath” is worked on for the blue Blessed Mother sashes the girls wear at the meetings. The wreath is made up of 9 flower petals for the 9 virtues studied that year. Petals are earned by participating in the monthly meetings, service projects, and completing follow-up activities at home.

Barb Kimme Memorial Traveling Rosary for Vocations – June 14th at Sacred Heart Church in Shawano
Barb Kimme Memorial Traveling Rosary for Vocations – June 14th at Sacred Heart Church in Shawano
According to the Vocation Ministry Analysis from 2015-2021, the state of priestly vocations in our Green Bay Diocese meets 3 criteria to be considered as “unhealthy”. To help raise an awareness and assist in rectifying this situation of the priestly vocation shortage, the GB Diocesan Council of Catholic Women has decided our best course of action is prayer to our Lord.
We are sponsoring a sort of 9-month novena for vocations. We will gather at 9 different churches every 2nd Wednesday of the month from March – November. The agenda includes song, prayer, speaker and reception. Our fourth date and location is:
June 14th from 1:00 – 2:30 pm at Sacred Heart Church. Sacred Heart is located at 321 S. Sawyer St in Shawano 54166.
For more information, please contact (920) 794-8276 or visit www.gbdccw.org or follow us on facebook, gbdccw.
