There are different groups of women in the life of Jesus the Christ: women who were healed by Jesus physically and spiritually, women who followed Jesus and provided for his ministry, obscure women whom Jesus noticed, and the women who are his family. Over the five weeks of Lent we will explore the stories of these women of faith asking ourselves - 

What are they saying to us in our time and space? 

Not all the stories of the women we explore in this study take place in the last week of Jesus’ earthly life. That is because it is the whole of his public ministry that leads to Holy Week and what we refer to as the Passion of Christ. 

Throughout Lent we will Meet the Women of the Passion. Who knows, we might learn something about ourselves, and more importantly about the Divine? 

March 9 ~ What is LENT and how do we journey through it? 

 

March 16 ~ Women who are Family ~ Mary the Mother of Jesus, Mary and Martha

 

March 23 ~ Obscure Women  ~ Peter’s mother-in-law, the woman who touched Jesus’ garment, daughter of Jairus, widows, the woman bent over and crippled

 

March 30 ~ Women as Disciples ~ Mary Magdalene, the woman at the well in Samaria, the Syrophoenician woman, women (named and unnamed) who anointed Jesus’s feet

 

April 6 ~ The Women in Holy Week & Women as the First Witnesses to the Resurrection ~ Pilate’s Wife, Caiaphas’ maidservants who challenge Peter, the women of Jerusalem
