MOPS/MOMSnext, LED BY PASTOR KAREN
Meeting 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of the month from 9:30 am - 11 am
Starting Tuesday, September 10
We know "momming" is hard so we created a group for moms with children newborn to 5th grade to support one another in a no-judgment setting with childcare provided! A new session of our Moms' Group starts Tuesday, September 10! Childcare will be provided by mature moms who have passed a national background check and whose gifts with children are obvious so that you can relax and enjoy conversation with other moms who have little ones. The conversation will focus on every day mom life and how to stay focused on some of the things that matter most (God, family, self-care, etc.). The group is a nondenominational, Christian group. Everyone is welcome! Don't do church, no problem! To register for the group, please complete the form below with your suggested donation of $35 per family. We look forward to meeting you!

Faith At Home
At UCC Medfield, we are committed to helping our families grow in their faith. One of the resources we offer for families is our Faith At Home Depot in the Children's Ministries Center on the 2nd floor of the church, where you will find some of our favorite secular books that we have used over the years in Children's Church and Summer Sunday School. You will find a laminated card in each book that highlights faith connections to these engaging and fun stories. We also have a variety of Christian children's books, DVDs and Bibles available, as well parenting books. We encourage you to take these books home and read them together as a family. We pray these stories and the conversations they spark will nurture the faith of your whole family.
