This years theme is MomSense:

What is that exactly you ask?  Well at convention we learned that it means your Mom Intuition + Common Sense = MomSense.  So we are going to explore our MomSense through the Game of Life this year. We chose this because our life changes that are going on in our area due to the loss of jobs at the Space Center. Everyone in the community is going to be affected in one way shape or form due to this. So we thought we can grow and learn through the Game of Life on how to be the most effective mom we can be.  This will help us develop our strong GODSENSE which is essential in mothering. And although it is challenging, it is also rewarding as we gain confidence in our abilities as moms.

I remember growing up with all the games like Checkers, Candy Land, Chutes and Ladders and Trouble.  I get excited that I still get to play those games with my children.  I think how different the times were when I was small and although some things have changed it is good to know that some things stay the same.  Our parents raised us different then we are raising our own due to society.  I remember being able to stay out until the street lights came on in my neighborhood and my mom never had to worry. Now I wouldn't let my kids do that without me knowing exactly where they are or who they are with.  In mothering, the one goal that is the same, is to raise our children the best that we can to make them strong, independent, and loving adults who know GOD and trust in him as we do.

So join us as we learn and grow in our MomSense through the Game of Life with great speakers, crafts and discussion.  Don't miss the most important aspect which is mommy time, that two hour recharge twice a month of mom conversation.  Join us on Facebook (MOPS-Titusville) and visit our website (www.orgsites.com/fl/titusvillemops) for events that happen throughout the year.
