Walking With Purpose has started, but new women are welcome anytime!
Walking With Purpose is a Catholic women’s Bible Study, which takes timeless truths from Scripture and applies them to daily life. Autumn of 2024 marks the 10th season of Walking With Purpose at St. Agnes. We are so blessed to be meeting again this year with two different studies offered at two different times and locations.
We have already begun meeting, however, any woman who wants to check out the program is welcome to drop in anytime, no matter how far into the season we are. If evenings work better, we have sessions on Tuesday from 7:30-9:00 p.m. downstairs in the school. If you prefer mornings, you can find us in the Parish Hall on Thursdays from 9:45-11:15 a.m.
Women who have not participated in Walking With Purpose previously (even those with previous Bible Study experience) are encouraged to take the study Opening Your Heart, the foundational study. Women who have already taken it are also encouraged to take it again if they want a refresher! The other option for prior participants is two back-to-back studies. We will begin with Rooted and Radiant, which takes an in-depth look at Saint Paul’s letter to the Colossians. We will be splitting some of these lessons into two weeks rather than one, in order to allow more time for discussion. Then we will finish the year with Passionate Discipleship, which covers 2 Timothy verse by verse. More details on the studies can be found below.

Opening Your Heart will take you on an exciting journey closer to the heart of God, help you form a personal relationship with Christ, and help you find answers to life’s biggest questions through the context of the Catholic faith. This Bible study is an incredibly effective guide to deep, lasting transformation of the heart, and we encourage all participants new to Walking with Purpose to begin here, regardless of previous experience with Bible study.
Rooted and Radiant was written for any woman who wants to live her life grounded in Jesus Christ. In this Bible study, we learn the book of Colossians verse by verse. We will seek to understand the challenges that faced the Colossians, recognizing that they are remarkably similar to our own challenges today.
Through this Bible study, we dive deep into understanding who Jesus is and what that means for us. We learn how to abide in the wisdom of Christ to navigate the ever-increasing demands and messages of our culture, and what it means to live in the freedom of Christ and how to continually set our minds on Him.
Throughout Church history, men and women have spent their lives on mission, committed to spreading the gospel message. They were disciples who made disciples. What does that look like for the Catholic woman today? How do we practically follow in their footsteps, ensuring that the message of Jesus Christ continues to reach every nation and generation?
Passionate Discipleship is a Bible study focused on equipping women to know Christ and to make Him known. Throughout this Bible study, we will study 2 Timothy verse by verse as we immerse ourselves in Paul’s last and deeply personal letter to his beloved friend and mentee, Timothy.
