October 13th Meeting - Raising Children in a Spiritual Household


We started off our Tuesday morning meeting with a great brunch and an announcement to all mom's from the Kid President! 





Wendy Schulz gave us some great tips on how to raise our children in a spiritual household. First, get all of YOUR questions about God answered. Kids have a "phony meter" and will know if you're teaching them something you don't believe yourself! She also gave us a challenge of spending some alone time with God each day and reading the scriptures with our children. This may look different for everyone, either waking up early, reading at dinner time, or corralling the kids in the bathtub and reading them a bible story where they can't escape! Wendy recommended the Jesus Storybook Bible as a great resource to teach the bible to little ones!







Trader Joe's was our sponsor for this week's meeting and provided a great gift basket for our raffle! If you weren't at the meeting you missed out!







We also kicked off our Yankee Candle Fundraiser and everyone received a packet of information and order forms. If you didn't get one, please ask for one at the next meeting!  There are two ways to shop - catalog and online. The top small group and top individual seller by November 10th will win a great prize package, so get out there and make some money for MOPS! Remember 40% of all sales go directly to our organization!

Go Play Save coupon books are still for sale! If interested in purchasing online with credit card go HERE, but take note there is a convenience fee added for online sales.




At the next meeting, we will be having a representative from WCPSS speaking to moms with children over 3 about the entry process for Kindergarten!

Moms with children under 3 who aren't quite ready for Kindergarten will be listening to our mentor mom Karen Cole speaking on early education!

Danielle's group will be responsible for bringing brunch on the 27th. Please sign up HERE to specify what items you will be bringing! 

We hope you will join us in this gorgeous fall weather!

(and MOPS!)
