GRACE MOMS COLLECTIVE
Wednesday, September 2, 2026 at 10 am in Benedict Hall
Meet and Greet & Sharing Tips for Surviving the School Year!
This will be a gathering of moms who want to meet other moms and be part of our collective. We are a group of moms who like meeting others, like to volunteer and give back, and like to support others who are sharing our parenting journey.
For today's meeting - bring some tips for how you survive the school year. Also, just to have some fun - bring a little something that brings you joy or sanity, so that we can have a little swip swap. I'm probably bringing coffee or chocolate.
We will have coffee - iced and hot - available for those in attendance!
