The Catholic Women Association (CWA) is an organization of Catholic laywomen founded in 1980 during Pope John Paul II\u2019s visit to Kenya. Guided by the late Maurice Michael Cardinal Otunga and later by Rev. Fr. David Kamau (now Auxiliary Bishop of Nairobi), the CWA empowers members spiritually, morally, socially, and economically.<\/p>

CWA draws inspiration from its patron saint, St. Monica, and is supported spiritually by its chaplain, Rev. Fr. Dr. Michael Ndichu.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

        St. Monica is remembered as a woman of unwavering faith, patient endurance, and persistent prayer. She prayed faithfully for her family\u2014especially for the conversion of her son, St. Augustine\u2014and trusted God even in moments of deep struggle. Her life reflects strength, forgiveness, and a love that does not give up.<\/p>

        For Catholic women today, St. Monica stands as a guiding light in prayer, family evangelization, and the quiet courage needed to hold families together in faith.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
