MOMs
- Christine Crachi & Jennifer Winne
MOMs stands for "Morning Out for Mothers." Our purpose is to meet the needs of moms with preschoolers. We meet first as a large group and then as smaller discussion groups from 9:00-11:30 AM, on the second and fourth Tuesdays from September to May. All mothers of young children are invited to a morning of refreshments, fellowship, a craft and an opportunity to discuss their concerns of being a wife and mother or a single mother of young children. Volunteers from LCC provide childcare for ages birth to five years of age with a Bible-based curriculum for the older children. In addition to the Tuesday meetings, there is a Bible study for moms led by Olga Gile that meets on the first and third Mondays of the month. We meet in the Commons at 9:30 AM and child care is provided. MOMs is a wonderful opportunity to reach out to non-churched women.
