Moms,
I hope you have had a fantastic summer and are ready for the school year ahead!  I hope you will join us for MomTime 2017-18!  

We are going to give the program a little bit of a facelift. With several of our members moving, student teaching or unable to do mornings right now, we are going to switch to a once a month “MomTime Get-Together”. This will allow us to open MomTime up to working Moms, and those who homeschool, etc. The group will remain open to Moms with kids of any age and we will offer childcare by reservation only each meeting. There will be no membership fee this year, as there has been in past years. We will work from the small budget we have from the church and Moms will pay for their own dinners out, or possibly “chip in” for different program materials to help defray costs, if and when needed.

While we have not yet finalized our plans for each meeting, they will all include a short devotion & time of fellowship with the mission being to support each other as Moms. Each meeting will be different. We will start with a dessert social to “get to know you” and then have nights that we go out to dinner as a group or meet here in the Parlor to craft, do a missions project, or fellowship.

Registration for this new version of MomTime is open, and we invite you to sign up and invite your friends to sign up too! (mvbcnow.org/momtime) It’s our great hope that this will give you a time to come, relax and enjoy being with other Mom’s as we move through this journey of parenting!
 
As a side note, we are planning on this programming running once a month through May, but since this is a pilot program, we have decided to give it a chance this fall and see what the response is and plan the winter/spring once we see what works and what doesn’t and if evenings are the best time to meet. We hope it is something you will enjoy and be ready to sign onto for the winter/spring as well!

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I hope to see all of you and your friends starting September 26!
