This is not the actual meeting of the mom’s group (will occur a few months from now), but formation of leadership for the group, brainstorming ideas on outreach into the community and most importantly, praying together for this new ministry opportunity and seeking the Lord’s direction in it. Hope to see you there! Please connect with LaelAnn if any questions, or if you’d like to come but don’t drive at night (possible carpool).
