Faith Fridays is an invitation for women to step away from the busyness of life and join together on a beautiful spiritual journey. Have you ever wanted to read Scripture but felt unsure where to begin? Let’s start together with the Gospel of Mark: Listen to Him, guided by the Blessed Is She study book. This inspiring book is filled with beautiful images, offers practical guidance on how to pray with Scripture, and helps you see how God’s Word speaks into your life as a wife, mother, sister and friend. No matter where you are on your faith journey—whether you’re just curious or have been walking with the Lord for years—you are warmly welcome to gather in fellowship with other women from our school and parish family.

Please join us for a special "Come and See" Faith Friday on Friday, September 4.  All are welcome! For more information, contact Renee Cresap at [email protected].
