M.O.M.S.

Have you heard of M.O.M.S.? It is Ministry Of Mothers Sharing. If you have one at your church think about joining. If you don't have one, think about starting one. It is a great experience. I would describe it as an opportunity to find balance in your life, and make friends who share your values.

In our church handbook M.O.M.S. is described as: "an 8 week process that awakens in women an awareness of their inner sacred self and teaches them new ways to inspire and affirm each other, their spouses, and children. Through this personal and spiritual growth, women reach out and bring their gifts to others in the Christian community. We are M.O.M.S. of all ages, with children from infants to adults. We support, encourage, and help each other through the wonderful journey of motherhood."

It is a non-denominational program. Of course if you are Catholic you can add a Catholic aspect, if you are Baptist you can add a Baptist perspective, etc. It is a wonderful opportunity for moms to find each other and support one another.

To find out more about M.O.M.S. you can visit them at www.stpaulsmonastery.org/6-moms/introduction.html . We have an 8 week program at our church and are soon going to add an annual retreat. I am looking forward to the retreat.
