Women With Purpose is an inclusive community of women fostering a relationship with Jesus through scripture, prayer and support for one another. The words of Pope Francis best summarize what we are all about, ““Knowing Jesus is the best gift that anyone can ever receive. That we have encountered Him is the best thing that has happened in our lives. And making Him known by our deeds and words is our greatest joy.”

We believe every woman is called to a spiritual journey; where you are on that journey is unique. Every woman has a story to share which can benefit others in a friendly and confidential setting. We welcome and accept everyone as they are: we are women from all walks of life with varied backgrounds and we span different age groups and generations. No prior experience or knowledge is required.
 
We have two meeting times; you can choose the option which best fits your schedule:

• Wednesday evenings from 7:15pm to 9:00pm; or
• Friday mornings from 9:15am to 11:00am. Free childcare is available for the Friday session.

 
Both groups meet in the Holy Rosary Parish Center. Please contact Deyette Swegle for further information regarding any of the sessions, childcare, or scholarship opportunities. Her phone number is: 206-937-1488 ext. 251 and email: dswegle@holyrosaryseattle.org.
 
Join us for fun and fellowship as we explore the bible and faith-based readings to find out what it really means to be Christian in our current culture and how the Bible is still relevant to Women in our modern world.

Listed below is a schedule of our coming sessions.
