“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.”

Men’s Group
As men, how do we live the fullness of the life of faith? Whatever the answer, it’s not given to us automatically – it must be actively pursued with mind, body, and soul. Join a group of brothers and friends as we learn what it means to be men “fully alive.”

Walking with Purpose
Our mission is to help every Catholic woman 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-minute 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.
We will be using the study guide Beholding Your King.
The study starts on Thursday, February 8, 2024 and ends on May 9, 2024.
In Beholding Your King we will study King David, select Psalms, the temple, and many Old Testament prophets and see the ways in which they all point to the coming King of Kings, Jesus Christ. We will discuss:
- Prophecies about Jesus in the Old Testament and their effect on people past and present
- Psalm 23, the most familiar of all the Psalms, which has comforted people throughout the centuries
- God’s steady purpose in both the Old and New Covenants, and the promises he kept to all of us
Come every week or when you can. It doesn’t matter if you know much or little about Scripture. This fall we are offering two options:
- Thursday 10:15 – 11:45am OR Thursday 7:00-8:30pm in Hobert Hall
- All women are welcome to join this Bible Study in February 2024 or after. You will have no trouble joining us in the middle of the study.

Exploring the Catholic Faith
If you are new to the faith or the Catholic Church, or if you are returning after being away for a while, our OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation of Adults, formerly RCIA) is the place to start. Beginning in October we will hold classes for those who are interested in exploring what it means to be Catholic. After taking the classes, any who wish to join the journey of the Church will be welcomed in at Easter.
- Thursdays at 7:00pm
- Hobert Hall, downstairs

Book Studies
We have a mix of newly forming and ongoing midday book study groups. These groups read a mix of classic and contemporary authors, leading to good discussion and new friendships. If you are interested in joining a book study, contact Calvin Smith for current offerings.
