What Is MOMS?
The Ministry of Mothers Sharing began as a national program with a group of mothers in Arizona in 1986. Their aim was to design a process that encouraged prayer, discussion and friendship among women of all ages. Today, MOMS has developed into a way to get back in touch with that fun-loving person inside you that gets lost in the diapers, laundry, soccer games and sleepovers, and to make deep and lasting friendships with other moms who are going through the same struggles as you are, and who share your faith.

What do we do?
We are in the process of re-envisioning the group. We aim to make it more applicable to the moms of our parish in today's society, and to provide activities and events that will meet their needs. We are open to any suggestions, and plan to offer both spiritual and social activities such as bible study, faith-based workshops, prayer groups, and social events.

Who Can Join?
Mothers of children of all ages are welcome, grandmothers too. You need not be Catholic, but must be open to prayer.

Why Join?
Here's what one of our moms said. "I attended a MOMS workshop in 2010. I was looking for some way to deepen my Lenten experience, and saw the workshop advertised in the bulletin. It sounded perfect, since I also did not have many mom friends at the time. Taking that one small step turned out to be one of the best things I have done for myself since becoming a mom. During those 6 weeks I learned a lot about how I deal with certain issues, I deepened my spirituality as I had hoped, and I made some wonderful new friends who are now a strong support network for me."
