Yesterday's Meeting!

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.
Psalm 119:105

Thanks so much to Danny for speaking to us! He talked about the importance of the relationships we have as mothers of preschoolers: UP relationships (mentors in our lives), SIDE-BY-SIDE relationships (women who are in the same place we are), and DOWN relationships (people that are not as far along as us). He pointed out the importance of having a mixture of all three kinds of relationships in order to be the women that God wants us to be.

Isn't it wonderful that MOPS allows us to have all 3 kinds of relationships, helping us to become the women and mothers God wants us to be?!

Leave a comment about something from yesterday's meeting that you learned and would like to share!

Meeting Reminders!

Next MOPS meeting is THIS WEDNESDAY, April 22nd!
FOOD GROUPS: Kristy and Marla

CALLING the New Babies of MOPS '08 - '09!!!!

We will be taking a picture of all of the new babies together wearing their "Adventure" onsies that the MOPS Care Team gave out! This will be so cute!!

9 a.m. (arrive a bit early, if possible) in the Gathering Place (just inside the doors by the children's classrooms)

(We know those babies pack on the pounds quickly! If your baby has outgrown his/her onesie, maybe you can try wearing it without snapping it? Hopefully it will work long enough for the picture! If not, or if your's is buried too deep in the attic, don't worry about it! What we really want to see are those cute little faces!)

Looking forward to seeing you all on Wednesday!

Summer Study Update!

Starting Date: Wednesday, May 13th
Place: Park Chapel Room 207
Time: 9:00-10:30 AM

There will be a sign-up sheet at the next two meetings for our summer book study, That's My Son. This is a great book that deals with mothering boys. It also gives practical advice for relationships. The cost of the book is $10. I have books that you can purchase at our first meeting. There is no need to read before our first meeting... but if you are really eager to read, let me know! Contact me if you have any questions.
