“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 Discovering Our Dignity.
The study starts in September 2024 and ends in May 2025.
In Discovering Our Dignity we will discuss how Women of the Old and New Testaments were as flawed and broken as we can be, yet the power of God worked in their lives. Discovering Our Dignity will allow you to learn from their experiences and uncover ways to deal with unwanted circumstances and deferred hopes.
Through their stories recorded in Scripture, women of the Bible reach out to touch our “present” in a tender, honest, and loving way-woman to woman-with ancient wisdom, sage advice, and insights from sorrowful failures and emotional wounds.
Learn how God worked in the lives of Biblical women:
- Sisters Leah and Rachel overcame jealousy when they learned that God offered all that they really needed.
- Abigail’s faith was so strong she didn’t despair, no matter how unpleasant life was with her husband.
- Deborah had been given grace by God to act as His prophet, for the good of her people.
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:
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

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.
