Sometimes life can zip by with all of the busyness of our everyday routine.  As a family, we can end up living separate lives though we sleep under the same roof.  
Traditions are a fun way to encourage closeness and fellowship within your family. Holidays, like the Fourth of July, are a great time to start and enjoy family traditions. 
As life tries to keep us busy and disconnected from our kids, take time to find ways to keep your family close. Start a new tradition this summer!

Summer is such a wonderful time of year ... and it can also be a crazy time, too! Sometimes we're so busy, tired, and stressed that we feel we don't have time to pray. On these days, we need to be talking with God most of all! 
When you pray, you're reminded of His awesome power and how capable He is to handle any situation you might be in. You'll start to feel the joy, hope, and peace that God gives to help you deal with the inevitable chaos of your life as a mom! 

THIS WEEK



Our next meeting is Thursday, JUNE 26 @ 7:00 pm at WFA. 
Little Blessings is a group specifically for pregnant women and moms of babies under a year. 
Join us for a fun time of fellowship and food as you connect with other women going through this same stage of life as you.  Babies are welcome to come with their moms.
