Walking With Purpose

Celebrating the 10th Anniversary of WWP at St. Mary’s Annapolis!

Join us on Thursday, September 11, 2025, for our Fall Kickoff and 10th Anniversary Celebration!

WWP is the PLATE that allows everything else to be carried with grace!
 
WWP Bible studies combine personal study with small group discussions, linking our everyday challenges to the solutions given to us through the teachings of Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church.

Walking with Purpose is a supportive community of Catholic women enriching their lives, deepening their relationship with Jesus Christ, and strengthen their faith supported by other like-minded women who are navigating their unique spiritual journey!

We offer two different women’s Bible study courses and this year we are introducing a self-study. Our ladies meet once a week in small groups and once a month as a larger group.

1. Opening Your Heart: First time joining Walking with Purpose? This is the study for you! No  experience is necessary just a desire to increase you trust in God’s unconditional love. Discover or rediscover a more personal relationship with Jesus and grow closer to God.

2. Fearless and Free is a Bible study based on the book of Ephesians and ideal for those who long for wholeness of heart and are in need of freedom from past wounds. So many of us are wrestling through the reality that life isn’t easy, even when we are doing the right thing. Suffering can slam into us from left field, leaving us reeling. This study provides a firm foundation to stand on no matter what life throws our way. With an emphasis on healing and wholeness, Fearless and Free is a personal and transformative study.

3. Self-Study, for women who are seeking spiritual enrichment but are unable to attend a weekly virtual or in-person meeting. Upon ordering your WWP study book, you will invest personal time each week to work through the lessons and watch the videos that accompany the lessons. You are welcome to join us during our Connect Coffees held on the first Thursday of September, October, February and March. We will also be introducing our 1st daytime Connect Coffee on Saturday November 8th. 
***Meetings begin on the week of 9/15***
