The Parish Council of Women is affiliated with the Archdiocesan Council of Catholic women (ACCW) and serves to unite all women of St. Bede Parish. Through fundraising for Church needs and outside organizations, the council promotes the spiritual and social well-being of the women of the parish. Each year PCW hosts a women's morning of retreat on the day after Ash Wednesday and a spring luncheon usually in April. PCW also helps fund some of the needs of the sacristy and other parish needs.
The current membership dues is $25 and is collected during the annual membership drive. The membership fee it voluntary as all women of the parish automatically enjoy membership in and the benefits of the PCW.
The PCW's Marisa Anne Lupica Scholarship is open to all parishioner 8th Grade young women planning to attend a Catholic high school. The chosen applicant will be awarded $500 for use towards her high school education. Applicants can be currently attending any school - public, private or Catholic.
