Thursday Evening Women’s Bible Study: Walking With Purpose
Do you crave meaningful connection with other women at St. Mary's? Would you like to know more about how Scripture relates to your everyday life? If so, we invite you to consider joining Walking with Purpose at St. Mary's Parish. Walking with Purpose (WWP) is a weekly women's bible study that through personal study and small group discussions helps to link our everyday challenges and struggles to the solutions given to us through the Scriptures and the Church.Join us Thursday evenings.
Monday Morning Bible Studies Group
The mission of this group is to study the different books of the Bible in their historical context and to see how they apply to us today. We follow the Little Rock Bible series commentaries and questions which include both the objective facts and the subjective way it affects us. In addition, the leaders give information from independent sources that adds to the discussion. Our biggest concern is discovering how the situations and ideas apply today in our own lives, and so discussion is greatly encouraged. It's by sharing our own joys and sorrows that we're best able to encourage each other to follow God's will more closely.

Monday Evening Bible Study Group
This group meets Mondays between Labor Day and Memorial Day remotely via the free Zoom app from 7 to 8 PM. Our goal is to create a more personal relationship with God through a deeper understanding of the Bible by exploring the history and context of biblical texts. We have a particular focus on: when, where, and why the texts were written, who the author(s) were, what history might be reconstructed from the text, to whom the author(s) were speaking, and how they speak to us today as faithful Catholics. We also seek to develop a deeper relationship with the Old Testament, and to experience the books of the Bible as part of a rich oral tradition – we try to experience the Old Testament texts as they were originally intended: as stories to be retold. Our reflection is facilitated by an experienced catechist for adults, Mrs. Tricia Mahoney.
