St. Patrick's Day & Easter Celebration!

After a relaxing meeting a few weeks ago, this past meeting we were back in celebration mode as our meeting fell on St. Patrick's Day and we look forward to Easter. Many were decked out in their finest green to celebrate! Thank you to the Teal and Silver tables for providing breakfast! Yellow and Pink tables, remember you have breakfast next meeting!

Our MOPS market this week wasn't an actual vendor, but rather a way for us to give back in service to others. Betsy Sauer spoke to us about her parent's organization in El Salvador that feeds and supports children who maybe don't have any parents or whose parents may work all day to support them. She gave moving testimony of how King's Palace is working to bring God's message to these children. If you are interested in learning more, you can go to http://www.kingspalace.org or email Betsy at betsy_sauer@yahoo.com. She is currently looking for prayer warriors to pray for the children and their mission in El Salvador.

Sherry Felker, who helps our group tremendously behind the scenes, was brave enough to give us her testimony this week. She told us of three people, her grandmother, her husband, and our own Nancy Ryalls, who have blessed her life by showing her God's goodness and how all things are possible through him. We appreciate your testimony very much!

Finally, we were fortunate enough to have Nancy walk us through a "Christian" Sedar. The Sedar is the supper that Jewish people share during Passover.  You can access the version of the Sedar that Nancy used here. It's something that you can share with your kids and they can be the ones to ask the questions! Thank you Nancy for sharing this with us!

A few additional notes from our meeting:

1. Momwise is next week at Nancy's house on Thursday March 24 at 7 PM. The topic is Raising Courageous Kids. Hope to see many of you there!

2. Jenny shared The Legend of the Dogwood with us. You can find a copy of it here.

3. Jenny also shared two different Easter related activities to do with our children. You can find a copy of those here and here.

4. Finally, a list of descriptions of Leadership positions for next year were available on the tables this past week. We will put those out again at the next meeting. If you are interested in any positions for next year, Jenny will be sending out a form that you can complete. Look for it soon in your inbox!

See you at our next meeting on March 31st!
