Breakfast/Clean Up: Two Discussion Group Tables at a time will be asked to take turns providing breakfast throughout the year. One session before your turn, you will sign up to bring a food item to share. Please bring enough food to serve 15 people. Your group will be feeding the rest of the women that day. You will also stay 10 minutes late to retrieve your dish and clean up.
Missed Meetings: It is likely that everyone will miss a meeting or two throughout the year. Since supplies are purchased in advance, we cannot refund for missed meetings.
Cost: Your registration fee of $50 per session includes Children's Ministry, MOPS program crafts, printed materials, decorations, paper goods, supplemental refreshments and more.
In addtion, part of the fee goes to MOPS International and registers you for the “MOPS to Mom Connection” which includes the Mom Sense Magazine, Life on Planet Mom Book, Weekly Mom Emails, and MOPS Membership for 2011-2012. Please make your checks payable to King’s Harbor Church.
Suggestions: Do you have a great idea for MOPS or have a suggestion to make? Drop a note to your Discussion Group Leader, or talk to one of the Steering Team Members.
Prayer Requests: We would like to pray for you! If you need prayer (confidential or not), let your Discussion Group Leader know or drop a note in the prayer box located on each Discussion Table; Questions, contact carol@khcmops.org
Resources: The KHC MOPS newsletter provides upcoming events and other important information. Please see the King's Harbor Church website for more information about the church: www.kingsharbor.org. If you want more information about MOPS International, please go online to www.mops.org. And of course, this site http://khcmops.blogspot.com/ is updated often with all kinds of Mom related information!
Discussion Groups: Topics brought up during discussion group time can be quite personal in nature. Please remember to keep the confidentiality of other moms. Every mom should feel safe sharing and not have to worry about it being repeated outside our discussion groups. Remember, "What happens at MOPS, stays as MOPS!"
We have a no "husband bashing" policy. We consider the marriage relationship sacred and we need to work to build up each other and encourage strong family bonds. If there are issues that you need to talk to someone about regarding your marriage, we ask that you contact a member of the Steering Team or a Mentor Mom.
"I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen."
Ephesians 3:16-21
