Fr. Walter Krewski, a provincial Spiritual Advisor, passed away on November 3, 2008.
Each year, beginning in the year of 2007, the Father Walter Krewski Award will be given to three councils in the Alberta Mackenzie area for increases in membership during the previous year. It will be presented each year at the Provincial convention.
The purpose of these awards is to encourage all councils to promote the ‘League’ in their parishes and to recruit new members.
The second award will benefit those councils that not only strive for new members, but also work to have all members renew each year.
The third award will benefit small councils who do not have a large membership, but also do not have a large parish population from which to recruit members.
All Parish C.W.L. Councils in Alberta Mackenzie are eligible for these awards. However, the council must have been active in the year prior to the award year (e.g. the awards given at the 2016 Convention will be for the year 2015, therefore the recipient councils must have been active in 2014).
From the information provided by you, the Provincial Council will ascertain who will receive each award and will notify these councils by April 15th. The receiving councils will be awarded a certificate of appreciation. A religious picture or statue for each category will be held by the receiving councils until February 28th of the following year at which time it must be returned to the Provincial President-elect.
