Hi moms,

Happy (belated) Thanksgiving! Although, everyday is "thanksgiving" when you have Christ in your life...I hope you enjoyed the day with friends and family!

This Tuesday the "Safety of Self Control" is our topic of discussion. What prefect timing... God is so good. It's so easy for things to get out of control during the holiday season...I've heard people say that they eat too much, spend too much, worry too much...I'm certain that none of us do that! Tuesday, we'll talk about what God's word says; what his good an perfect will is for our life.

See you Tuesday and have a great weekend!

Book Recommendation

Chris Pappas gives this book an enthusiastic thumbs up! Check it out!

Hi moms!

Detective Pruitt put together a great presentation for us this past Tuesday. It was a little overwhelming to hear some of the statistics. I hope you found the information useful and feel better informed on how to protect your children when they use the internet. I know I do.

If you know of a family who needs help buying Christmas gifts for their children, please let Elba know and she will add them to the "Angel Tree".

Give Thanks!.......This Tuesday Nov 24th is our Thanksgiving Day Brunch. Please bring a dish to share if you are able. If you forgot what you signed up to bring, email me or give me a call . We will also be making prayer journals and Amanda will be leading that craft. Remember to encourage and lift one another up in prayer daily. "Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again; Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:4-7

Have a blessed week.

The Blessing of Children

Hi moms,

This month our topic of discussion is "The Blessing of Children". This week we learned 10 ways to love our children, based on the book "A Woman's High Calling", by Elizabeth George. We also talked about discovering our children's love language, based on the book by Gary Chapman, "The Five Love Languages of Children." "Ultimately, our most important job as moms is to lead our children to a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, their eternity depends on it."

Don't forget your homework assignment this week! Observe your children and find their primary love language.

Next Tuesday, guest speaker Chris Pappas will continue our disscusion on "The Blessing of Children". Hope to see you there, you won't want to miss it.
