MOPS | Nursing & Nurturing | Apples of Gold | Working Moms | Afternoon Guild (LMWL) | Women's Summer Bible Studies
MOPS is for all moms with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. St. Paul's MOPS group offers a caring atmosphere where a mom is reminded that she is not alone, has an opportunity to share concerns, make friends, explore areas of creativity and more. MOPS is led by mothers for mothers, with the addition of three Mentor Moms who have "been there, done that."
We begin each 2-hour MOPS meeting with a homemade breakfast and talk time. Then we feature a guest speaker, Mentor mom devotion, occasional make-and-take craft projects, other fun activities, and time to visit with other women just like you. During meetings, children enjoy a safe, nurturing childcare program.
MOPS meets from 9:00 to 11:00 a.m. on the first and third Thursdays from September to May.
No matter where you live, or where your church is (or if you have no church home) -- you are invited to join our MOPS group at St. Paul's! Click here for information.
Are you pregnant? A new mom? A mom with small children? Trying to get breastfeeding to work out? Join our Christian discussion and support group, called Nursing and Nurturing, as we talk about breastfeeding issues and mothering in general. Twice a month (one morning and one evening) we will gather to share ideas, concerns, support and prayer requests.
"Attachment Parenting" encourages emotional responsiveness with your babies and children as they grow. You may have an enthusiasm or curiosity about some of these topics or maybe just one, like nursing. Rest assured that our atmosphere is open and inviting, and all moms are welcome. Children attend with mom, and play while mothers talk (we meet in the Lounge).
This group is designed to help "workforce moms" provide much needed encouragement, mentoring, and prayer support for each other. Come and join us once a month for devotions, discussions, and a little fun! We meet the first Friday of each month at 7:00 p.m. in the Lounge.
Apples of Gold is an eight-week nurturing program for women offered periodically throughout the year.
The primary purpose of Apples of Gold is based on Titus 2:3-5 which exhorts the older women to nurture younger women in the Word of God and to encourage them to obey that Word. The biblical principle of woman-to-woman mentoring is God-given.
An Apples of Gold class is more than a Bible study. Apples of Gold is a nurtruring program for younger women who meet weekly with mature women mentors who share topical Bible studies based on Titus 2:3-5 (kindness, loving your husband, loving your children, submission, purity and hospitality), practical homemaking skills, cooking demonstrations, and encouragement to be the Christian woman God has called us to be. As we share together, we grow in our love for God, our family and others.
Apples meets one evening per week for 8 weeks. Contact: Charlotte Bohlmann at 314-822-0447 x 108 or cbohlmann@stpaulsdp.org. Registration limited; dedline: September 16, 2010.
