If you are mothering a child who’s “extra” and has therapy (OT, PT, speech or counseling), deals with medical, behavioral or spectrum diagnosis…we are your gals! IEPs, 504s and all the county acronyms are welcome here. Brenda Kalous and I (Tabitha) have 20 years of experience walking through our faith and special needs parenting and would love to come alongside you. We will meet in Montrose on even days, and Delano on odd days. Come in your sweats or your lipstick. We can’t wait to meet you!

GriefShare is a friendly, caring group of people who will walk alongside you through one of life's most difficult experiences. GriefShare is for everyone who is grieving the death of a loved one - whether the loss was many years ago or very recent. Whether you’ve experienced the loss of a spouse, parent, child (unborn, infant, young child, teen, adult), friend, sibling, co-worker, or other relative, you don't have to go through the grieving process alone. You will hear the stories of those who have journeyed down the road of grief and learn how they moved forward. You'll also hear from experienced grief counselors as they help you understand what's normal in grief, how to manage it, and what to watch for.

Moms in Step

Moms in Step

EVERY THURSDAY

9:00-11:00am

JAN 23 - APR 17
*No Meeting March 6th for Spring break

Childcare is currently FULL. Register below to join the waitlist.

Moms in Step is a weekly gathering for women of all ages focusing on spiritual, emotional, and physical renewal. You will have the opportunity to connect with other moms and study in a small group. The group is a great way to connect with new and old friends while connecting with God through His Word. Childcare drop off begins at 8:50 am. From there, we have Refresh Time: participate in an instructor-led exercise session, chat with friends, quiet time, pray with a friend or mentor, or walk with your group! This is your time to refresh! From there, we move into our small groups where we will connect with each other by discussing our reading for the week. This is all done while your children are cared for by loving adults in our childrens rooms.

This spring study is Come and See: A study on the Gospel of John: Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples that are not written in this book. But these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name. John 20:30-31

What does it look like to live an abundant life? We live in a world that tries to convince us that life can be found in temporary pleasures. However, in the pages of the Gospel of John, we are invited to “come and see” and to believe in the only source of true life: Jesus Christ

JOIN US!

PLEASE NOTE:

• If you join the childcare waitlist, you will not need to pay the registration fees unless spot(s) become available.

• Every mom who registers will be asked to serve one week in a childcare room. Sign ups will be sent after the first meeting. This will allow us to have more kids/moms participate in Moms In Step.

Please check in your child(ren) at 8:50am. If you have questions contact Kelsey Berg (kelsey.m.berg@gmail.com) or Erica Miller (emiller0904@gmail.com).
