This will be an opportunity for women from across Alberta and beyond to come together in a fun and faith filled atmosphere with other women to share and deepen their faith journey.

“She is clothed with strength and dignity;” Proverbs 31:25

This weekend our speakers will do a deep dive beyond the question “What is a woman?” to “What is an authentic Catholic woman?” Notably, our next three CFM conferences will be encouraging all of us to understand what Catholics need to be in order to impact our current culture through our authenticity as Catholic women, men, and families. The keynote speakers Rita Taylor and Rachel Wong will speak on the Feminine Genius and living a life as a virtuous and faith filled woman in today’s challenging times. Janelle Reinhart and daughter Monique will provide the weekend music and Fr. Kris Schmidt and Fr. Antony Cruz Michael will celebrate the weekend Eucharistic celebrations.
