Have you every noticed that there is no such thing as play dates or play groups for moms of tweens and teens?
Yet, a momma never outgrows her need to connect with other women in the trenches of motherhood and to find a place of encouragement and inspiration. Beyond diapers duty and potty training, learning letters and picking preschools, mommas need help and hope in every stage of parenting. They need a well to gather around, or in modern day terms, a break room to share a cup of coffee and life’s war parenting stories as they ‘fess up challenges, pray through worries, and glean wisdom from biblical truths. We need to talk. We need to chat in a search for wisdom. And we long to do it in a place that is seasoned with grace (Colossians 4:6).
Why not start a Grace Chats Group?
If you have a longing to connect with others moms of tweens and teens, why not start your own Grace Chats group? We’re happy to equip you with the resources and encouragement to help you start your own group:
How to begin a Grace Chats Group:
- find a partner to help you host or lead the group
- set a monthly or bi-monthly group gathering time and pick a location, such as your home or a church
- pick a topic to discuss using our resources: a Topic & Truth Downloads, Dig Deep Guides, 100 Questions for Mentors, 100 Things I Want to Tell Moms & Mentors, or Impact My Life
- invite moms of tween and teenage sons and daughters
- consider coordinating your gathering time with an ETC or Mugs & Mornings group, where the girls head into one space and the moms gather elsewhere
