St. Gregory the Great Bible Study for Women
Discovering our Dignity, is a Bible study for women where we discover how the power of God worked in the lives of women in the Old and New Testaments. Some of the women in the Bible were as flawed and broken as we can be, and their stories provide us with inspiration and hope. We also learn from each other as we discuss these women and their stories, and we enjoy great fellowship as we journey together in our faith. We hope you can join us, even if you are not a Bible scholar! The Bible study will begin on January 10th, at 9:30 am in the St. Matthew room in the IHM Welcome Center. For more information about this study, or to register, contact Sheri May at sherimay76@gmail.com or Christy Hiltz at christyhiltz@gmail.com
