Embracing Summer: A Short Pause on Mom's Group Meetings and a Promise for the New School Year (May 2023)

Hello, extraordinary moms who light up our community! As the sun shines brighter and the days grow longer, we find ourselves at a special juncture in our mom's group journey. It's time to reflect on the incredible experiences we've shared, as we prepare to bid adieu to our regular meetings for the summer months. Let's celebrate the remarkable moments that have enriched our lives and look forward to the promise of a new school year.

Meetings that Sparked Connection and Celebration

Our final meeting marks a culmination of learning, growth, and camaraderie. In a spirit of unity and festivity, we're coming together for a unique event – Tacos & Testimonials, complete with DIY manicures & mimosas! It's a time to savor delicious tacos, share heartfelt stories, pamper ourselves with nail care, and toast to the cherished memories we've created.

This meeting is a celebration of us – our triumphs, challenges, and the bonds that hold us together. As we relax and indulge, let's remember that our group is a source of support that will continue to uplift us, even as we take a break for the summer.

Play Dates that Created Lasting Memories

Our playdates have been a source of joy, adventure, and family bonding. The Shrimp Festival in Fernandina Beach was a feast for the senses, offering a delightful array of experiences for both kids and adults.

Family Movie Night at the Jumbo Shrimp field was a magical evening under the stars, as we watched "The Bad Guys" with our loved ones, surrounded by the spirit of camaraderie.

Our visit to MOSH (Museum of Science and History) was an opportunity for our kids to learn and explore while having a blast. These playdates have been a reminder of the importance of quality time spent with our families and fellow moms.

Moms' Nights: Celebrating to the Fullest

Our moms' nights have been a sanctuary of laughter, bonding, and celebration. The MOPS & Pops End of Year Party, hosted at Anne's house, was a heartwarming way to close this chapter of our mom's group meetings. We celebrated the achievements of our kids and ourselves, sharing stories, laughter, and perhaps a few tears of pride.










Looking Ahead to the New School Year

As we enter the summer season, our mom's group meetings will take a break, giving us the opportunity to embrace the joys of family vacations, relaxation, and the simple pleasures of life. During this time, we'll hold onto the memories we've made and the friendships we've cultivated.

But fret not, dear moms, for the promise of a new school year brings with it the excitement of reconnecting, sharing, and growing together. Our mom's group will resume with fresh energy, new experiences, and renewed bonds that remind us that we are never alone on this journey of motherhood.

So, as we bid adieu to our regular meetings for now, let's raise our glasses to a summer of fun, laughter, and cherished moments. Until we meet again, let the warmth of the season fill your hearts with joy, and we'll look forward to reuniting in the coming school year. Cheers to you, fabulous moms!

All for Love

Registration for the 2021-2022 is officially out! Click here to register. Come join us! Below is a note from MOPS International on the new theme for the year: Here at MOPS, we choose a theme to rally around each year—a theme that inspires, encourages, and speaks into our mothering journeys. Last month, we unveiled our brand-new theme (You can watch the reveal video   ) for the next year, and we are obsessed. After a year spent hunkering down, living smaller, and experiencing a little more fear and anxiety than usual, we are declaring this is the year of going big. It’s a year of fresh starts and turning ordinary experiences into extraordinary ones.  Enthusiasm will replace worry. Friendship will replace loneliness. No longer will we wait to “get back to normal”; instead, we will start making space for the new things God has for us. We will become less guarded and more daring because this is our year to live ALL FOR LOVE.

We Are Live!

It's official! The new MOPS group has been started! Technically, I have to complete a bunch of training courses before we can be listed as a group on mops.org. But we are rockin' and rollin'! We have space reserved for the fall, nursery workers committed and a few leadership members brewing. This is going to be good! Please stay tuned for registration information in the next month. In the meantime, check out the new theme video for this year.
