Fox Valley Catholic Bible Study for Women offers a structured, Catholic daytime Scripture study with a spiritually enriching program for preschool children. Study materials present biblical interpretation consistent with the teachings of the Catholic Church.

This study is intended to provide opportunities for a deepening faith and love of our Lord Jesus Christ. Participants are encouraged to recognize and strengthen the Body of Christ within their home parishes. Our study provides a supportive, loving, spiritual environment, fostering and celebrating a sense of community within the larger church. All area women are invited to attend.

FALL 2024 Study: ANGELS IN THE BIBLE and SCRIPTURE AND THE ROSARY

The Bible is full of passages about angels who are sent to accomplish God’s will. Angels speak for God, direct the course of nations, and protect God’s people. They worship God and deliver God’s judgment. In Angels in the Bible, we’ll examine some of the Bible’s most fascinating passages about angels, exploring their ministry on God’s behalf and drawing insights for our own spiritual lives. Because angels are mediators of God’s presence and action, studying angels is studying God. 

The rosary has long held a central place in the prayer lives of Catholics. At the heart of this popular form of prayer is an invitation to focus our minds and hearts on the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, Son of God and Son of Mary. Through an illuminating analysis of all the relevant biblical texts, Scripture and the Rosary provides a trustworthy guide for deepening our understanding and appreciation of key events in the lives of Jesus and Mary, reflected in each set of mysteries: Joyful, Luminous, Sorrowful, and Glorious.

Our Fall 2024 study will be held at St. John Neumann Parish (2900 E. Main St, St Charles, IL) from September 5th to November 21st. A zoom only option is also available.

We gather at 9am. A speaker will give a reflection on the weekly lesson at 9:15am, followed by small group discussions. The $30 fee includes the study materials. Structured childcare is offered for children age 2 through 6 for a one-time fee of $10 per child. Children under 2 will stay with their mothers in a special group.

Partial and full scholarships are available upon request.

Directions to the church and online registration are available on this website. Please register early. We look forward to studying with you.
