Calling All Women
Are you looking for a place where you are listened to in love and where you grow in the ability to listen to others in love, a place where you and other women can speak honestly and openly about faith and the impact faith has on our lives, a place where you will fall more and more in love with God, and where you will learn about courageous women of faith and their journey to serve God and their neighbor? Then come and be a part of Women Gathered!
Women Gathered has been in existence for over 25 years. Over the years Women Gathered has been privileged to minister to and with many women from our parish and beyond. We have no specific age group, and all are welcome. Many women have been in the group for 15 years. There are about 52 women in all.
Over the years we have studied scripture, the beatitudes, the Gospels and more. At times we have used books as a source of discussion and reflection. Last year we focused on the gift of compassion.
From September until December this year we will learn about, reflect upon, and pray with women such as Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton, Lydia and Priscilla, Immaculee and many more remarkable women of faith, as our goal remains to come closer to God every day. We have prayer, open discussion, teaching, and reflection each week. The women are awesome and support each other in prayer and kindness. We hold sacred everyone’s privacy as we share from our hearts so no one repeats what people share outside of our room in a way that would harm that trust. Many women cannot make a weekly commitment for a year, and we all understand, so if you miss a week or a month and come back you will feel right at home again. The women are remarkable. If you wish to “come and see” that would be great; we understand. Please feel free to call Barb Mccarthy at 724.312.4370 or email at stferdbarb@gmail.com if you have any questions.
