School Supply Mission

Well, it’s official…we are halfway through summer and school supply shopping is sure to be on your calendar; which brings me to our next important mission for the summer of 2010! We will be collecting school supplies for A World for Children (MOMs has supported this organization for several years and they are so grateful for your contributions). A World for Children (AWFC) is a faith based, non-profit child placing agency licensed by the Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (TDFPS) to provide foster care for abused and neglected children, ages birth to 18 years. As you can imagine, they are in dire need of our help to make sure each child is ready for school this year. Now is a great time to donate as school supplies are on SALE! SALE! SALE! So when you are out and about, please print out the attached list and take with you on your next errand run (please note the list is items needed per child and any type of donation you can contribute is greatly appreciated). You will make a difference in a child’s life J.

Please place your donations in the MOM MISSION blue bin in the Family Life Center foyer or give to one of your friendly council members for collection. We will be collecting from today, July 19^th through Wednesday, August 3^rd. I will be making a delivery on Friday, August 6^th to their offices in Round Rock (if anyone would like to join me, I’m always up for company!).

As always, please let me know if you have any questions about this mission and I will be happy to assist you. For more information on the organization, please feel free to visit their website: http://www.awfc.org/.

I hope you are having an enjoyable summer and thank you for all you do to make our community a more caring, loving place to live! See you around town!

Peace,

Laura Tinglestad

  

Here is a list of the needed supplies.

Registration for the Fall

We are very excited that the begining of the semester is right around the corner. Our Welcome tea is on Thursday, September 9th from 9:30 to 11:30am in the church foyer. If you would like to register for the tea and get your kids registered for the Tea childcare please follow this link.

Our first official meeting will begin September 16th and 17th. If you would like to register for the Fall semester please fill out the registration form. You can turn in your form as early as the Welcome Tea or if you like you can turn it in at one of the meetings. We do ask that members pay a registration fee of $65 a semester to help defer the costs of childcare and the costs associated with running the Ministry of Motherhood. This year we ask that you submit your cash or check payment at the same time you submit your registration form. Sheramee Fowler, our Registrar, will be accepting forms and payment at the Welcome tea and during the first several meetings.

If you would like to take advantage of childcare during the Mom's meetings. Please fill out this form and submit it to Dana Anderson, our Childcare Coordinator. She will also be taking forms at the Welcome tea or during the first few weeks of the semester. Please be aware that childcare is filled on a first come first serve basis, and it can fill up quickly.

Please keep in mind that the registration for the Tea and the Fall Semester are two completely different forms. Each form must be filled out independently of one another.

We are really excited about the beginning of this new year! And we are really looking forward to seeing all the new and veteran faces of Mom's.
