Bible Study: Women in the Old Testament – Begins October 8

Bible Study: Women in the Old Testament – Begins October 8

As Catholics, we often stick to the familiar stories from Scripture that we hear at Mass, but what about those stories that are few and far between in our lectionary? 

This fall, join us as we explore the creativity, courage, and leadership of women in the Old Testament and come to know ourselves and God more deeply through the lens of their stories. Journeying with women such as Sarah, Deborah, and Ruth, this study will explore Israel’s beginnings, captivity and freedom, and tribal period from the perspective of the earliest women of salvation history.  

No prior knowledge is required – only an open heart and mind, and a willingness to meet these holy figures in prayer and community…

Walking with Purpose Bible Study for Women: Reclaiming Friendship

God never intended us to walk our paths alone – and yet, this is how many of us find ourselves today.  Whether it be due to the isolation of the ongoing pandemic or the stress of everyday obligations, we, as women, often put our needs last.  But the spiritual need is one that cannot be ignored, and neither is the need for human connection…
