You’re invited to join the M.O.M.S. group of Saint Michael and All Angels! Mothers Offering Mothers Support is an organization of mothers with young children. We will explore the blessings of being a parent and joyfully support one another as we discuss common questions and challenges while keeping God in the midst of it all. The program this year is based on Philippians 4:13, I can do everything through Him who gives me strength.
Meetings are held once a month, with coffee and fellowship beginning at 9:00 am. The scheduled program begins at 9:30 am and will conclude at 11:00 am. Your husband is invited to join you for the evening meeting in February.
If needed, child care is available for the programs. Please call 214-361-1224 or email bwynn@saintmichael.org at least 3 business days prior to each meeting. You may make a standing reservation for the entire 2008 – 2009 year by completing the enclosed child care reservation form and returning it to the Early Childhood Ministry office. If a reservation is not needed, please call the office to cancel.
Save the dates listed on the enclosed schedule and plan to attend! M.O.M.S. of Saint Michael promises another exciting year focusing our lives on God, marriage, and children. It also offers a unique opportunity for fellowship with other mothers. To submit your contact information please email us at saintmichaelmoms@yahoo.com.
