January 24th Meeting

With the bad weather keeping almost half of our MOPS group away, those of us that did make it were entertained by our speaker, Tracey Solomon!

Tracey spoke to us on Missional Mothering a.k.a parenting.. where becoming a mom is like becoming a missionary. After nine months of fundraising, buying supplies & trip preparation, you land on a desert island where the natives (our children) are restless! (And so are you!)

Tracey stressed the importance of getting to know our children & engage in their lives.

Proverbs 22:6 says, "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it"

Tracey says, "We mother missionally because we mother for a higher goal- to raise children who love God and others. We love as if our lives depend on it- because theirs do."

Tracey Solomon is actively involved with MOPS International, you can read more about her on her blog.
