MOMS (Ministry of Mothers Sharing) Contact: Renee Crock - 563-886-1249
MOMS is a national organization developed by the Sisters of St. Benedict of St. Paul's Monastery in St. Paul, Minnesota. MOMS is based on the Gospel values articulated in the documents of Vatican II, especially the document Called and Gifted for the Third Millennium and traditional Benedictine values these areas:
- Seeking God in daily relationships.
- The dignity and call of each human person to holiness.
- The Christian's ability to practice discernment and stewardship.
- The value of Christian community and sharing time an talent with others.
All mothers of St. Mary’s Parish are invited to participate in an eight-week faith-sharing group. It is for mothers of ALL ages. A new group is starting up on Thursday evenings, 7:30-9:30 September 4 - October 30, 2008.
Brochures with the registration forms are available at the entrances of the church. If you have questions or to register please call Sam (Samantha) Rezac at 886-3416 or Katie Ryan at 886-2500
At St. Mary's, MOMS is an eight-week course that awakens in women an awareness of their inner sacred self and teaches them new ways to inspire and affirm each other. Through this personal spiritual growth, women claim their own giftedness and bring these gifts to the Christian community. At St. Mary's, those involved with MOMS gather to form a network of mutual support in a chaotic society. They provide a group experience of learning, praying and ministering to each other. MOMS introduce mothers to opportunities of personal and spiritual growth in a faith-sharing group, and teach ways to increase communication skills and the use of prayer rituals in the home.
