The above image is symbolic of our CIRCLE OF LOVE program. Every point of the circle is equal distance from the point of the center and bound together by a common interest - LOVE.
The small heart in the center is taken from the logo of the HEART SPEAKS TO HEART program. By utilizing this portion of the logo and part of the Heart Speaks to Heart program that is compatible with the Circle of Love, a smooth transition occurs.
The Cross and Crown in the center of the heart is the national symbol of the Order - the Catholic Daughters of the Americas.
The seven points selected indicate the needs of the Church and community best served by the Catholic Daughters. The program itemizes these needs with suggestions on how Catholic Daughters can effectively serve.
The CIRCLE OF LOVE program is designed to assist Catholic Daughters in working with the Church and community. We are very aware of the needs in society that are deeply affecting today's generation, the elderly, and human life. To be effective in promoting good works, we must reach out and make a difference in the lives of those who are suffering, whether it be through their own fault or the circumstances in which they find themselves. If we are to be "Jesus' hands and feet" as is pledged in the Act of Consecration during the Installation Ceremony, then we must use the talents He gave us, become educated in new fields, and volunteer our services and financial assistance where needed.
Our court selects those portions of the program that we feel comfortable working on in our local area.
CDA strives to embrace the principle of faith, working through love in the promotion of justice, equality and the advancement of human rights and human dignity for all.
Our members are encouraged to develop leadership skills, dedication and great enthusiasm for the work of Christ and His Church. We answer our Lord's call with faith, generosity and love by joining the Catholic Daughters of the Americas and participating in these programs.
