If I were to come, what would it be like?

  1. Arrive at MGBC, park in the lot, and enter through the door on the left.

  2. Not bringing kids with you?  Walk down a few steps and through the door on your right into the large common room.

  3. Bringing kids?  Come a little early to check your children into childcare.  Head up the steps and follow the check-in procedures. Then join us downstairs.

  4. Sign in and get a name tag from the welcome table.

  5. Get a drink and/or snack if you’d like.  Oh yeah, SNACKS are PROVIDED!

  6. Find a seat to sit and relax, stand and chat, or some other combination of those actions!

  7. Someone will formally welcome everyone, and then we’ll begin.  The meeting time usually includes the following:  fellowship, speaker, discussion and occasional craft.

Moms matter Steering Committee

  • Meet Connie…

    I was asked to be a mentor in 2008 when Moms Matter (formerly MOPS) began.  My three daughters, one son, four grandchildren, and over 50 years of marriage have provided lots of practical experience.  Hopefully what I’ve learned can help moms as they attempt to navigate life with children.

  • Meet KARLA...

    I enjoy Moms Matter because I can be honest about my concerns and struggles and find support and encouragement when I need it. The childcare is amazing. My kids look forward to the activities and playing with other kids, and I look forward to the time to listen, talk and get to know each other.


  • Meet Lindsey...

    I started off my journey in motherhood in isolation. Through that I’ve come to see and love the biblical wisdom of learning from ‘Mentor Moms’ and finding community with others. I love Moms Matter because my children love it and it’s a chance for all women to encourage and be encouraged.’
