Street Ministry & Scrapbooking

Mr. Ford came to share with us about the Street Ministry.
This Ministry goes out each Wednesday night and feeds
the people they meet and gives them a few sanitary items as well.
The girls were very appreciative of Mr. Ford coming to share
with them and even asked several questions regarding the
Street Ministry.
Mrs. Wrenn is showing the girls what sanitary items
to put in the ziploc bags.







Time for Scrapbooking!
What a great time it is to put a page together
of pictures of your little one! Great Job Girls!

Susan Wilson

We had a great meeting tonight despite the fact we had fewer girls than usual.
Susan Wilson was our speaker. She is a "Been There Done That" mom and she
shared with us the importance of education.
We thank Susan for taking the time to come visit and share with us her testimony.
We played a game tonight called broken telephone. Mrs. Sharon shared a story with two girls.
These two girls went back and each told another girl.
Those two girls told another girl each...and so on.
By the time we were through - the story had changed on both sides.
We wanted to zero in on how damaging hurtful words can be to an individual
and to a group such as ours. Before criticizing someone else, we need to pause long enough to discover our own motives. Failing to do this can bring disastrous results.






Mrs. Denise turned 42 today and the girls
got her a birthday cake! It sure was good!




After each meeting, the girls have some time to shop in our
Mops Closet. Here are a few pictures of the girls shopping.




Some friends have donated their old but new baby clothes,
so they were also able to get some "FREE" items which is always nice!

Are You Smarter Than a Staff Member????


We had our Annual Parkway Valentine Banquet tonight. It was a great time.

The contestants, Mrs. Katherine, Mr. David, Mrs. Denise
Drew & Parker

Mrs. Denise's question...
Which animal is mentioned most frequently in the Old & New Testament?
Well of course she knew the answer.....NOT - she was a nervous wreck
So, instead of using the copy, peek, or save for help
She got brave and asked the host, Ken, if she could phone a friend
He said SURE! So, she called Sharon Montgomery
Only to find that Sharon was no longer sitting in her seat - she had moved
toward the front - a little panicky - Mrs. Denise waited...and finally Mrs. Sharon answered!
Thankfully Mrs. Sharon knew the answer.....now the question is.... do you?

MOPS VALENTINE BANQUET

What a great night. We were blessed with some of our own Parkway Members who cooked a DELICIOUS meal and provided EXCELLENT entertainment. We want to thank the Morning and Evening MOPS for having us a part of their banquet.

We were blessed with the entertainment by Hunter Sparkman. He shared with us some of his own songs he wrote and the meanings behind them. He is truly gifted and we thank him for making the trip back home.



What a GREAT group of friends, TeenMOP leaders, and Sunday School Teachers!

like Mother like Daughter

Tonight we had our Bible study from our book
Life After Birth
We discussed how we would do some things different from our own moms
as well as doing the same things in raising our children.
We had a great time playing Pictionary - we used words that were important
qualities for a mother to have. Girls were very good at drawing and getting the right answer!
We finished up by discussing a few Bible verses to help us realize
God Knows You Can Be A Great MOM!


Tori & Ashley
Elaine shares with us how she wants to be a good mom
Tori wanting them to guess her "quality" word!
Angie's turn
Elaine, Hannah, Tabatha & Tatum trying to get the right answer
