Mom’s Meetings = Encouragement
The heart of Mom's Meetings is definitely encouragement, but there is also instruction, fellowship, healthy food and fun. Women from many different churches and backgrounds come to these monthly meetings. They are a warm and safe haven of encouragement. We talk about topics that women face such as finding time for prayer, strengthening marriage, becoming a better parent by understanding ourselves and our children better, handling adversity, difficult relationships, and learning ways to develop Christian character in our lives so we can be a better example to those around us. To sign up for the free newsletter, see link below.
We gather on the second Thursday of the month during the school year, with various classes from 6:00 -7:00, followed by our "Mom's Heart" gathering from 7:15-8:30.
University City Church of Christ, 4626 NW 8th Ave, Gainesville.
