Walking with Purpose is a national Catholic women’s ministry that develops Bible studies to reach adult women, young adult women, and girls. St. Thomas Aquinas started their chapter in 2022.
The heart of WWP ministry is the parish-based Bible study program for adult women. Run by local lay women volunteers, approved by parish pastors, and supported by Walking with Purpose national staff, the parish programs welcome all women irrespective of faith background, age, or marital status. The program incorporates at-home Scripture study, weekly small group discussion, and monthly talks on relevant study material.
There are two opportunities to join a session at STA: Wednesday mornings or Thursday evenings. The groups meet weekly and typically run from September to May. You may join at any time, contact the leadership team at the email below to register. There will always be an open chair for you – Come as you are! Join other women of the parish for Walking with Purpose Catholic women’s ministry to journey through Scripture together!

Save the Date! Walking With Purpose returns this February with a New Study: Beholding Your King
Join us as we study King David, select psalms, the temple, and many Old Testament prophets and see the ways in which they all point to the coming King of Kings, Jesus Christ. A fuller view of God and His glory is the perfect antidote—find this during our journey through the Beholding Your King Bible study.
Walking with Purpose is a ministry that helps women to know Jesus Christ personally by making Scripture and the teachings of the Catholic Church relevant and applicable. WWP Bible studies combine personal at-home study with small group discussion, linking our everyday challenges to the solutions given to us through the teachings of Christ and the Catholic Church.
If you desire to grow in your faith—in a supportive community of Catholic women—Walking with Purpose is for you!
