Mom to Mom

1st Monday of the Month  |  6:30 pm – 7:45 pm

Being a mom gets more complex all the time, and none of us have it all figured out! Mom to Mom is a ministry designed to bring moms of all ages together in a safe, Christian environment. Our goal is for moms to build upon their relationship with Jesus as we navigate parenting and day-to-day life. As directed in Titus 2, more experienced moms can guide other moms with Godly wisdom. We can all come together with the same goal — to be a better Christian mom! Join us as teachers from our GCS staff lead in prayer, share, and teach from God’s Word so that we may become more like Him and give Him glory! Join us on the 1st Monday of every month from 6:30 pm – 7:45 pm.

If you haven’t done so, please register so we are ready for you!
