Hello October!
Is it me or does it come sooner and faster each year?
It's time for MOPS again this week!
This Thursday, October 8th, we will have a self-defense instructor come and show us some moves and give us tips on how we can better protect ourselves and our families. Should be fun!
**DRESS Comfortably***
Our 2nd meeting in October will be on the 22nd. We will be having a children's clothing/items swap. So bring all the random items you have but no longer want or need and pick up some new-to-you ones! You can bring items to this week's meeting and we'll begin to sort and organize them.
Look forward to seeing everyone Thursday! God bless!

July 9th @ Whealan Pool - 11am
Hello Mommas & Friends!
This Thursday we are heading to the pool!
We will be meeting at The Pool at Caldwell Woods (6200 W Devon Ave, Niles, IL).
The pool opens beginning at 11am, so that's when we will gather. There is a small fee per person for admission into the pool ($5 per adult, $3 kids 4-12, 3 and under are FREE).
If you are planning on coming, great! I, Erin, will have my cell phone on me ** 765-404-4139 ** if you need to find us or help getting there. Feel free to invite friends along, mommas and non-mommas alike.
The forecast currently looks clear on Thursday, but in the event of rain, we will meet at New Life Lincoln Park to let the kids play and run in the gymnasium. (1110 W Lill, Chicago, IL 60614). I will send out an e-mail Thursday morning if it is looking like we will be at Lincoln Park instead of the pool.
Look forward to seeing everyone! God bless!

PowerPlay!!!
Hello Mommas! I wanted to let you know about an awesome event happening at New Life Lakeview next week (2958 N Damen Ave, Chicago, IL 60618). Our Summer Children's Outreach (formerly known to most of us as Vacation Bible School) will be next week, Monday through Thursday - June 22-25th.

PowerPlay will end with a bang! On Thursday night we encourage parents to come join the fun for a block party in front of the church building. There will be games, activities, and more all centered around what the children have learned during their time at PowerPlay.
We want to encourage you to enroll your children online at: www.powerplay.rsvpbook.com

If you have any questions, or would like even more information, please contact EJ Lyon and she will happy to answer and help you with anything you have to throw at her. :o) Her e-mail is ejl@newlifechicago.org or you can call the church office to reach her at 773-388-0637

Summer Playdates
Hello everyone!
It's finally here...summer in Chicago! MOPS is on break until the fall, but we have a few playdates for everyone to get together during the summer. You can check out our summer playdates on the calendar or visit the blog again in the next couple of weeks to get more details about the events.
If you can't make it to the playdates, but still want to get together with some of the other moms at MOPS feel free! If you don't have their e-mail or phone number, send me an e-mail and I will pass along our Summer Contact Sheet so you can reach them or find other people in your neighborhood.
Have a great summer and we'll look forward to seeing you in the fall if not at the next playdate!
God bless!
