Catholic Women Association Boston-USA Elects New Exco

The first official pastoral visit to Boston-USA by Bishop Andrew Nkea of the Diocese of Mamfe to the Cameroon Community in 2014 was the pacesetter that led to the creation of the Catholic Women Association [CWA] Boston chapter. The dream came to fruition on Sunday February 22, 2015, as all the catholic women in Boston assembled to open a new chapter and elect their pioneer executive for a four year mandate. In a spirited holy mass celebrated by Fr. Maurice Agbaw-Ebai and Fr. Edmund Ugochukwu that preceded the election, the catholic women in Boston baptized the newly created CWA Boston chapter as Queen of Peace Branch. The election that followed after the Holy Mass produced the following outcome; Pioneer president Mofa Patricia Nanje, Secretary General Ma Mpey Arrey Evelyne, Financial Secretary Bridget Aroke, Treasurer  Bridget Dohmatob, Social Secretary Adel Njike, Liturgy Ashu Cecilia, First Adviser Amina Margaret, Second Adviser Pauline Acha and Spiritual Director Fr. Maurice Agbaw-Ebai.

 In a conversation with Cameroon Concord the pioneer president Mofa Patricia Nanje noted that women are the soul of the Cameroon community in Boston. "Therefore we CWA Queen of Peace Branch Boston will embark on a crusade mission of evangelizing the word of God, teach catholic doctrines and encourage both married and unmarried women to join the association". Patricia Nanje added that CWA Boston will work to bring catholic women closer to the Eucharist and also to bless their marriages in church.  The new president also announced her plan of action which involved inter alia charitable acts such as visiting  homeless and handicap children centres in the city of Boston. In a rare recognition of our coverage of the Holy Roman Catholic Church on earth, Cameroon Concord US Bureau Chief Bertrand Etukeni Agbaw-Ebai was given an honorary position as a Patron of the newly created CWA Queen of Peace Branch in Boston. The new executive will be officially presented to the Cameroon community on Easter Sunday.
