Ascension’s Women of the Word (WOW) meets every Thursday in the Parish Hall from 9:30 -11:00 am to see God’s word come alive through fellowship among Christian women and transform the way we live our lives as Christians in the Catholic Church. We gather together to glorify God’s name, to learn more about our Catholic doctrine, and to share our personal experiences with each other. Most of all, we hope to offer friendship, strength and support to each other through prayer and sharing.
Our mission is to help every Catholic woman and girl in America encounter Jesus Christ through our Bible studies. For questions contact Diane Ruzicka at diane.ruzicka1@gmail.com. We hope to see you!
Current Study Information:
We invite you to join a 12-week study of John Paul II’s Letter to Women by working through an Endow Study! John Paul II wrote a letter to ALL women of the world and this includes you!
Endow (Educating on the Nature and Dignity of Women) is a Catholic women’s apostolate dedicated to helping women recognize, cultivate and educate their unique “feminine genius” which John Paul II believed was “vital” and “essential” to the Church and the world.
To this end, Endow creates study guides designed to be used in a small group! The best part is you’ll be reading the actual text of the document (in this case John Paul’s Letter), a spiritual and theological commentary, and questions in between and at the end for us to discuss in friendship and fellowship.
We will tackle one chapter per meeting and the BEST part is there is NO homework! We read everything out loud together during the meeting. Just bring your lovely self and your study guide which you can purchase at this link . There are 2 options an E-book or physical. The physical copy has a link further down.

We will be meeting at the Parish Hall on Thursdays from 9:30 – 11:00 am. We will begin Thursday Sept. 28. Don’t forget to invite a friend!
I look forward to seeing you soon!
