Superior DCCW (Holcombe, WI)

Mahdere Bekele • December 20, 2024

Lucille Brandner, Evelyn Lompa, and Jane Schiszik gathered recently to celebrate Evelyn Lompa’s 90th birthday! These ladies have a connection with one another through the Council of Catholic Women. Collectively they have been active with CCW for a total of 127 years having all served in their local parishes as well as at the Deanery, Diocesan and the Province level. Evelyn’s leadership with the Council of Catholic Women is what brought them together and they are still active in Council today. It is the women we meet and the relationships that are made that make the Council of Catholic Women so worthwhile!
