Mom to Mom

 Help for the World’s Toughest Job: Being a Mom!

Adults-Mom-to-Mom-Table

September - April
Tuesdays mornings, 9:30-11:30 a.m

Among all the expectations in the world, there is one for all parents: to raise great kids. "How to" manuals are available for just about every kind of task. Children, howeer, don't come with a guidebook, and raising children is incredibly important! Mom to Mom provides moms with real life training, mom to mom connections, and encouragement for the most important job in the world--parenting. Through practical, biblically-based teaching on parenting, and through supportive interaction in small groups led by experienced mothers, Mom to Mom fosters growth not only in parenting skills but in wholeness as women.

Mom to Mom is a ministry to moms of all ages and at all stages of parenting--infants through grandchildren. Each week includes a DVD lesson and a small group discussion of the lesson and of issues moms face as they seek to raise children with character, integrity, and joy. It is a time for encouragement, teaching, fun, and fellowship.

We will continue our successful Tuesday morning edition, beginning Tuesday, September 27, at 9:30 am. We will study Linda Anderson's curriculum designed specifically for Mom to Mom. This year's study is entitled Growing Together: Growing a Child=Growing a Mom. Linda's DVD lessons reinforce the concept that, as challengingas it is to raise a child of any age, God is right there, growing the mom along with the child. This is encouraging new for moms who desire to raise godly children and, at the same time, become the moms that He desires us to be.

Tuesday mornings, 9:30 - 11:30 am. Each morning starts with fellowship and good food, followed by the DVD lesson and small group discussion. Some Tuesdays we take a break from the DVD lessons with speakers and/or workshops. The childcare is outstanding. We employ loving nursery attendants to care for children up to under age three. Our Kid to Kid program is for 3-5 year olds and is staffed by wonderful volunteers, many with teaching experience. The children enjoy a Bible story and related craft and snack, songs, and play time in the gym. The cost for Tuesdays is $15/semester or $30/year. (Moms who already have the Growing Together book pay only $10/semester or $20/year.) There are scholarships for anyone who indicates that need.
