Christmas Comes to Mom Time

We wrapped up a great semester of Mom Time this past Tuesday with food, fellowship, and carols. It is a trademark to end each semester with a food day, and this one definitely did not disappoint. I don't know about the rest of you, but I love a buffet. I mean, I really love a buffet.

Some new twists this year included making it a "working breakfast." We assembled gift bags for the WeeStreet program, laundry bags complete with quarters, detergent, and softener sheets for the food pantry, and made Christmas cards for a local nursing home. Many hands made light work, and it felt good to know we were touching lives in our community while we had fun at the same time.

To close, Shannon Bartz led us in Christmas carols. Personally for me, this was the highlight. To hear the voices of all the moms lifted in worship, singing to our great God...it just chokes me up. It was wonderful to take a step back, quiet the pace of the season, and just enjoy one another.
A sincere thank you to all the women who helped out with our final meeting. It has been a pleasure and a privilege to journey this last semester with you. Merry Christmas from the whole team!
