Dear Catholic Daughters of Court Mary Immaculate,
​
We want to say how thankful we are to our outgoing Board and for all their hard work and dedication! The past two years have been difficult for us all. It is so good to be able to get back to meeting in person again! We will continue to offer Zoom during our meetings for our members who are unable to meet in person. That has been such a blessing! We have missed gathering together for our meetings and different events. Our Corporate Masses have been well attended and we want to thank all of our parish priests and our Bishops for their support for Catholic Daughters. Our Lenten Fish Fry Bake sale was a huge success! Many thanks to the Knights of Columbus for putting on this event and all the CDA members who baked and helped every Friday during Lent!
We are looking forward to all of our upcoming events that will continue to foster unity and charity among our members and all who we serve.
​
We are excited to see what the future holds for our Court and we ask our Patroness, Blessed Mother Mary to intercede on our behalf and guide us in all our endeavors.
​
We are praying for you, please pray for us!
Blessings,
Court Mary Immaculate 1719 Regent and Board

Who We Are
Our History
The Catholic Daughters of the Americas is one of the oldest and largest
organizations of Catholic women in the Americas. The CDA motto is "Unity
and Charity". They donate to charities, administer scholarship programs
and strive "to be helping hands where there is pain, poverty, sorrow or sickness".
The CDA was formed over 100 years ago in 1903 in Utica, NY and today's numbers are 75,000 members in 1,250 courts in 45 states across the country, and in Puerto Rico, Mexico, Guam and the Virgin Islands. Just recently, a new court was established in Kenya.
Deeply spiritual, the Catholic Daughter women share faith, love of God and a distinctly feminine spirituality alluded to by Pope John Paul II when he spoke of the necessity of "feminine genius" in today's world.
CDA National Mission
"Catholic Daughters of the Americas strives to embrace the principle of faith working through love
