Mary's Women of Joy

Weekly Catholic women’s gathering rooted in Scripture, spirituality, and friendship.

Mary's Women of Joy is a weekly gathering of women who study Scripture and Catholic spirituality and enjoy the joy-filled work of building holy friendships. It is an affiliate and independent organization of our parish, walking closely with the Church while responding to the unique call of women’s hearts.

All women are welcome — come as you are.

About Mary's Women of Joy

At Mary's Women of Joy, women of all ages and seasons of life gather under Our Lady’s mantle to grow closer to Jesus. Each meeting we open the Scriptures, draw from the riches of Catholic spirituality, and share the real joys and struggles of daily life.

In an atmosphere of prayer, warmth, and reverence for the teachings of the Church, we seek to discover our dignity as beloved daughters of God and to encourage one another in the Christian life.

Our Heart & Mission

Mary’s Women of Joy desires to help women encounter Jesus more deeply through Our Lady and the life of the Church. Flowing from that encounter, we seek to live our vocations as daughters, wives, mothers, grandmothers, and friends with renewed joy and trust.

Prayer

We begin and end in prayer, entrusting ourselves to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary and praying for one another’s needs.

Study

We reflect on Scripture and Catholic spiritual writings to better understand the beauty, wisdom, and mercy of God and His Church.

Sisterhood

We build friendships rooted in Christ, supporting one another through the seasons of life and encouraging holiness in everyday circumstances.
