Moms, Tots and Beyond (MTB) has a ministry focus to mothers of school aged children as well as those newest moms of infants and toddlers. MTB seeks to provide a place of encouragement, guidance and faith for women who are grappling with God's call as wife and mother.

Every Thursday from Mid September until the end of May, mothers gather for encouragement, insight and inspiration. These gatherings include large group teaching and discussion time with other mothers on faith, parenting and personal growth and small group time. Small groups are assigned at the beginning of the year so that the women have the opportunity to grow new friendships, and if comfortable, share their concerns/ needs/ praises. Small groups are where more personal needs can be shared and women can pray for one another. Each of these small groups is led by an "experienced" or mentoring mom. Mothers new to the program are welcomed into the groups throughout the year.

The morning is opened with songs of praise and then one of our leading mothers speaks with regards to a variety of topics which have included such issues as grace parenting, discipline and schooling choices. Small group time then follows so that further discussions may occur or concerns and praises may be shared and supported by the group. It is designed to be a welcoming and comfortable place to bring friends and meet new ones.

Moms, Tots and Beyond meets each Thursday morning in the Garden Room at Knox from 9:15 until 11:00. Childcare is available from infancy to PreK/K with caring, capable paid staff. Infants are also welcome to stay with their moms. A Biblical curriculum including storytime, music and crafts is provided for children approximately 3 and up.

Join us in growing closer to Jesus, discovering more about ourselves, our children, our parenting and caring for one another.
