A New Beginning

Tonight MRM ushered in 2 new leaders as we said goodbye (not really) to one of the founding moms. Melissa helped create Mothers Reaching Mothers out of necessity when she moved here 3+ years ago.

Before MRM there wasn't a place for Christian mothers to join together every month for support and encouragement. MRM truly is Melissa's baby.

Now that she has helped raise it out of infancy she is ready to start a new phase, one that will meet the needs of mothers with children in grades K thru 3rd. Melissa is handing over leadership of the birth-pre K group to Autumn and Courtney.

We are all so grateful for all the hard work Melissa put in over the past 3 years. I can't wait to see how God blesses both groups over the coming months and years.

I was excited to see the new moms at tonight's meeting. I encourage all of you to bring a friend to the June meeting. This summer we plan to have fantastic speakers to entertain and educate all of us.

Remember if you need childcare it's free! Just call Trinity Baptist Church by the Wednesday before the next meeting to reserve your spot.

  1. Melissa has done a great job over the years, but she was not alone in the founding of this group. Merydwen Peschel and Molly Vaughn were instrumental from day one, and without the vision of these three ladies, there would be no MRM. After the Vaughn family relocated, God brought in Lauren Lively to help carry the torch of leadership with Merydwen and Melissa. God remained ever faithful and His work continued through new leadership as Merydwen stepped into a college ministry and Lauren's family relocated. Each of the new leaders bring with them new ideas and great vision for this important ladies' ministry of TBC. I am excited to the see the direction MRM goes from this day forward. It is a great ministry and has just begun to scratch the surface of MRM's potential. Good Luck Ladies!
