Women at the Well, a group open to all women interested in spiritual growth, invites you to join us. We are a diverse group, welcoming women aged 18 to 118, striving to become spiritually mature Christian women who grow in our Catholic faith, increase our understanding of it, and share it with others. We do this through book studies, Bible studies, and programs on the Catholic Faith on Wednesday evenings throughout the year.
Join Women at the Well this Advent as we anticipate the birth of Jesus. This study will be a combination of individual reflection time and group meetings.
Live Meetings: Weds., Dec. 11 th and 18 th in the Convent 7-9PM
Individual Reflection: Week of Dec. 1st on and Dec. 22nd
Cost: $12
Who: Women ages 18-118
Embark on a transformative journey this Advent with Heather Khym, cohost of the Abiding Together podcast, as she extends a heartfelt invitation to embrace stillness and silence amid life’s chaos, allowing God to dwell in the
depths of your being. While the world moves at an ever-faster pace, Heather encourages you to pull back from the hustle and create space for our Savior to come into every area of your life—to transform and heal it through his love.In Encountering Emmanuel, using poignant reflections and accompanying videos, Heather will gently guide you into the areas of your heart where Christ has not yet come—the areas where you’ve shut him out, the places you’ve long forgotten and ignored, or the spaces you’re ashamed to acknowledge.You’ll learn how to invite him in so that he can bring his light, love, peace, hope, and healing into your heart. From the forgotten corners to the shadowed recesses, Heather encourages you to open these spaces to the transformative power of Christ’s love.
Each day will show you a unique way God can come into your life, including the following:
- He comes in the darkness
- He comes to set us free
- He comes to awaken us from slumber
- He comes as a helpless child
- He comes as a gift to the world
- He comes as a person with a face
- He comes to be our food
God will not force—love never does—but he asks, and we have a choice. Will you open wide your heart to the Savior and give your fiat as Mary did? Each day you’ll journey deeper into the meaning of Advent with a meditation, stunning art specially created for this book by Josiah Henley of Heart of IESVS, reflection questions, a prayer, and journaling space.
