“Live and die with Him, this is the glorious work of a Christian; in a word, this is our profession. If we do not know it, we must learn it.”
Brother Lawerence
Walking with Purpose
Who: Women of all ages
What: Our mission is to help every Catholic woman and girl encounter Jesus Christ through study of Sacred Scripture and the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Our vision for the future is that, as more Catholic women deepen their relationships with Jesus Christ, eternity-changing transformation will take place in their hearts- and by extension- their families, communities, and ultimately, our nation.
There is no actual walking involved! We use a study guide to do daily 15 minutes lessons 5 days a week, then we come together once a week in small groups to discuss what we’ve learned. Each meeting is a gift of time to refresh, grow, and worship, free of judgment or pressure. WWP is a No-Judgement Zone. We welcome all women, of any faith, background, age, or status, interested in studying God’s Word as taught by the Catholic Church.
Our next study at St. Bridget will be Opening Your Heart:
Join us as we explore the core questions that we need to wrestle with if we want to experience all that God has for us. How can I conquer my fears? What is the role of the Holy Spirit in my life? What does the Eucharist have to do with my friendship with Christ? What are the limits of Christ’s forgiveness? Why and how should I pray? What is the role of suffering in my life? What challenges will I face in my efforts to follow Jesus more closely?
Come every week or when you can. It doesn’t matter if you know much or little about Scripture.
When: Beginning Sept. 2022.
