Great Start!

Our year is off to a fantastic start if you ask me! I'm so excited about how God is blessing our group! We had 19 ladies at our first meeting and 23 at our second! I know there are more that God is going to bring to this ministry as well! So much fun to be part of where God is working!

Our first meeting was just to get to know your table leader and other ladies at our tables.

Our second meeting we featured Julie Jones, one of our own MOPS moms! She gave us excellent tips and ideas for cleaning our house in a way that it is not so overwhelming! She helped us organize a binder for keeping track of all of our "house" things we as moms and/or wives have to do!

One of the best examples I've ever heard about being a mom/wife was one that Julie shared with us: "Sometimes I feel like glue. As the woman of the house I am what seems to hold us together. There are times I don't want to be glue!" (I'm sure I did NOT quote her exactly, but that is the gist of it.) I thought that was so great and said exactly what we feel like as moms and wives sometimes! Being the glue can be tiresome, but don't give up!
