Egg Hunt

 

What a blessing our children are every day!  Easter is such a special time of year for us to remember that Jesus died for us and to pass this Good News along to our children.

  We were fortunate to have a MOPs member volunteer to host an egg hunt at her home.  She had cupcakes, treats, and eggs for the children to hunt!  It was a beautiful day and we had an awesome time.

Thank you, Kerri!

 

Panel Discussion

 

 

 

As usual, we started our meeting off by enjoying some yummy treats.  It is always so fun to try new recipes and enjoy this time of fellowship with one another.

 

And we were so blessed to have a wonderful panel of "experts." These ladies (and gentleman) would probably never refer to themselves as such but they definitely have many years of experience with raising children between them.

 

Panel Members:

 

• Debra and Tony - Parents of 4
• Lisa - Children's Director and mother of 2
• Ceil - Mother of 2 and grandmother

Hot Topics Included:

• How are some ways you can cope when your spouse travels?
• What is the best way to approach your spouse when you need help around the house?
• How can you foster a relationship with Christ when your spouse has different views?
• Should spanking be an option?
• What should you do when your child is being bullied?

So now that you want to know the answers to all of these burning questions, just know that you should have been there! Panel discussions are always a hit in our group.  We typically have at least one per MOPs year.

March 6, 2013 - Making Cards for Lump to Laughter

 

 

Food. Glorious food!  One of the best parts of MOPs is that we have awesome food and fellowship.  Check out all of the yummies that we had.  Chocolate pretzels, corn dip, chicken salad, veggie and fruit trays, and the list goes on!

 

At today's meeting though we had a very special task at hand. We made cards for a local charity called Lump to Laughter. This is a Christian based group that provides support and encouragement for women with breast cancer.  Today we made 48 cards to donate to this organization to use.
