Nadia will be giving us simple, applicable ideas and tools to help our little ones learn about God and to grow into a real, life-long relationship with Him.

Digital Scrapbooking
Greetings!
Our first MOPS meeting of the year was great! It was so wonderful to see so many familiar and so many new faces! I look forward to seeing everyone again soon.
Our 2nd meeting of the year is This Thursday, Sept. 25th. We will have a guest speaker from Creative Memories talking to us about the joy and simplicity of Digital Scrapbooking.
Do you know what digital scrapbooking is? I'm not 100% sure what it is, but I'm familiar with traditional scrapbooking...the painstaking process of getting all my paper, photos, stickers, cutters, trimmers, croppers, etc. out and having it consume my kitchen table. Let's face it, there has got to be a better way! Maybe this is it...we'll find out Thursday.
Look forward to seeing everyone there! Our next meeting will be October 9th - Nurturing Your Child's Spirit with guest speaker Nadia Swearingen-Friesen. Check out her blog at: http://NadiaSwearingen-Friesen.blogspot.com
God bless and we'll see everyone soon!
