The Struggle With the Juggle (March 6)

As full-time working moms, we have a lot on our plates. If you are like me, you feel like you are constantly on the go, yet you barely have time to do the things you really want to do, like play outside with your kids, take a long hot bath, or even read a book or magazine without 10,000 interruptions.

It's not that we don't love our kids and family.  It's quite the opposite. We love what we do. We are just often overwhelmed with the expectations we put on ourselves or that we allow the world to put on us. We want to be perfect, when in reality, there is no such thing as a perfect mom, or even a perfect person outside of Jesus Christ himself. So, what can we do about all of this? How can we make the life we have been given a little easier? How can be balance everything and still find joy?

Come to our next meeting on Thursday, March 6 at 6:30 p.m. to find some help navigating and answering these questions as Barbara Copeland focuses on the topic of "The Struggle With the Juggle". She has been in our shoes, and she survived and thrived.

If you don't know Barbara Copeland, or if you have never heard her speak, you are in for a real treat. She has a way with words, and I promise that you will leave lifted up and encouraged. We will be making a craft as well, so make sure you bring those creative juices with you!



*** We WILL still be meeting in the fellowship hall after all!

BUNCO Night

I played BUNCO for the first time about ten years ago. It's one of those games that is easy to learn, and it is a lot of fun to play. In order for the game to work like it should, we need as many people as possible to come and join us. The game is played in groups of 4, ideally.

Come out and join us for some fun (and easy) competition on Thursday, February 20 at BBC. There will be some great prizes that you won't want to miss!

TMI Thursday!

Our next meeting will be held from 6:30-8:30 at Bethlehem Baptist Church, and it is sure to both entertain and inform you. You might even blush a little! We will be having a local midwife and labor and delivery nurse as our special guest speakers, and we encourage you to ask them any question you have ever wanted to know (or not know) about your body, pregnancy, giving birth, or womanhood in general. We already know we rock, we just need to hear it sometimes, right?

Then, one of our very own steering team members will be giving a special book review and presentation that you won't want to miss.We hope you all can join us for the fun!



* If you are planning to bring your children with you, we ask that you kindly RSVP by Tuesday, February 4 by responding to either the eMOPS Facebook page or email.

* If you haven't already done so, please take the time to complete the online survey that Amy has sent out. Your feedback is greatly appreciated so that we can best meet the needs of the women in our community.
