About Us

​The Alberta Mackenzie Provincial Council covers the area from the southern border of Alberta, north to the Arctic Ocean. The east – west border is generally from
Saskatchewan west to the British Columbia border with the borders of the Mackenzie-Fort Smith (M-FS) Diocese forming the borders in the Northwest Territories.
The ABMK Council of the Catholic Women’s League of Canada was established in 1947.
There are five dioceses encompassed in this area. From south to north the dioceses are: Calgary, Edmonton, St. Paul, Grouard-McLennan, Mackenzie-Fort Smith. The five dioceses cover over 2 million
(2,000,000+) square kilometres and boasts a membership in The Catholic Women’s League of Canada of 7618 amongst 141 councils (National 2023 Annual Reports) – second only to Ontario in membership and council numbers.
The ABMK Provincial Council respectively thanks God for all of creation. We acknowledge that we are situated on Treaty 7, 4, 6, 8 and 10 lands, Tll’cho Treaty, Deh’cho Territory, Sah’tu Dene Treaty, Gwich’in Dene Treaty and Inuvialuit Treaty Lands. We acknowledge the many First Nations, Metis, and Inuit whose footsteps have marked and cared for these lands for centuries.

Join the Catholic Women's League!
