Two announcements and a reminder

FIRST:

Light in the Valley Community Church is looking to hire someone for nursery on Sunday mornings. We're looking for someone who is committed, reliable and has a passion for kids from 9:45-11:45am every Sunday. There is an average of only 2 kiddos in our nursery. You can bring your own children if you'd like to. Please email Whitney at lightinthevalley@gmail.com or call 782-1920 if you're interested. Feel free to pass this along if you know of someone who might enjoy some extra money and loves kids.

SECOND:

Mom's Night Out is staying at the originally scheduled date of March 29th. We'll be meeting at the church in our normal room, and CHILDCARE is (hopefully) PROVIDED- still waiting on some calls back on that one. Cover charge of $5.00 to offset cost of supplies- and please note the beginning time has been changed to 6:30.

THIRD:

There is no MOPS until April 13th! March has five Wednesdays- so sometimes we get thrown off a bit.

It's official...

...spring is here! And with it, all the rain/snow/sleet etc. one can expect. However, with spring always comes the promise of renewal; the small leaves of green poking up out of the dead, grey flowerbeds, soon to be tulips, hyacinth, irises, and daffodils. Every year, I am excited and amazed- and ready. As much as I love snow, the greening up of the ground and the buds on the pear trees get me excited for warm days ahead. Just one of the many reasons I love living in a place with four seasons!

This week at MOPS, we'll be focusing on the home- Creating Our Homes to Be Masterpieces. To me, the idea of a home as a 'masterpiece' means a place comfortable and relaxing to come home to- not just regarding the state of cleanliness/organization, but also the state of the relationships in the home. Maybe it's prosaic, outdated, or too Ozzie-and-Harriet, but I do believe our homes need our attention. Come hear one of our mentor moms, Linny Jones, speak on this topic this week at our regular time on Wednesday. Brunch and childcare provided (last meeting, we found bigger plates for brunch- yay!); check-in begins at 9:15. See you Wednesday.

It's MOPS week!

This Wednesday, March 9th, we'll be hearing from Pastor Jon Vandel about developing and using our gifts based on our personality. It should be informative and fun. As always, brunch and childcare provided. Our Steering Team is working on the next Mom's Night Out- jewelry making! More details to come, but the night is March 29th, so mark your calendars. See you Wednesday.
