Women's Ministry

St. Francis—Women’s Ministry
Connecting Hearts, Transforming Lives, Seeking Truth

Go from Surviving to Thriving!
We were all created with four basic needs ; emotional, intellectual, physical, and spiritual.
Join us as we explore and focus on meeting these needs in ways that will help us to become “The-Best-Version-of-Ourselves.” We will learn ways to begin “Living Every Day with Passion and Purpose” with excerpts taken from Matthew Kelly’s book The Rhythm of Life.

We will meet over four consecutive evenings. Each evening will highlight one of our basic needs taking it from surviving to thriving. We follow a format that represents all components of Women’s Ministry; Fun & Fellowship, Short Inspirational Presentation, Connecting with one another and prayer.

Dates: February 13th, 20th, 27th and March 6th
Time: 7:00pm—8:30pm
Place: Parish Center
