MOMOLOGY: The Art and Science of Mothering

We all know that mothering is, indeed a science. And an art. There is a certain amount of finesse in mothering that we have seen in many admirable moms, moms we all hope to someday be like! The upcoming MOPS year will provide an amazing number of resources for moms who are working daily to be the best moms they can be. We will never be perfect, of course, but that doesn't mean we stop striving to do our best. Our children deserve nothing less. I hope all our MOPS moms are as excited about the upcoming year as the Steering Team is.

We have been working hard to make sure this is a spectacular MOPS year. The speaker topics are incredibly relevant speaking on issues such as the love language of children. The crafts will be fun, funky, and functional with crafty Rachel at the helm. Tephanie has been working on the amazing table decor and other hospitality issues, and wants everyone to feel at home when they walk into our MOPS room. Tammy is our registration person and has a comforting way about her that will make every mom, even those new to the mommy world, feel welcome in our organization. Mandy is our Discussion Group Leader, and she is on the ball making sure each Table Leader will know what is going on and how to go about meeting the needs of our moms. Gina and Kelley have been diligently searching all summer for Moppet volunteers, and they have done all they can to make sure our Moppets will be in a safe, fun environment where all moms will feel comfortable leaving their children. Erika is in charge of finance and ensuring we are good stewards of the monies we are provided. Erin is our care coordinator and will do her best to make sure those who need a little TLC get it!! Crystal is our publicity person and will be taking over this blog, our facebook page, and is already hard at work on a FABULOUS newsletter that will go out on a monthly basis. Deedee Nelson and Christy Putty are co-coordinators of this MOPS group, and all of us have a passion for MOPS! We can't wait to see what the Lord is going to do in this group!

Our first meeting of the year is September 13th at 9:30 in the Southside Chapel on Ramstein. We can't wait to see you there!
