Mama’s Moments is a monthly gathering for mothers and their children up to age 8 to get together to share life with others, play together, pray, and participate in community projects. It takes place on the first Saturday of the month and runs from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. at Valley Brook Community Church.
Brenda Gooley, one of the mothers who attends, said: “I love bringing my five-year-old to these gatherings each month because he loves playing with the other kids and I’ve made some significant friendships with the other women. I would recommend it to anyone.”
The second opportunity is Valley Brook’s annual summer kid’s camp. This year’s camp will run from Monday July 21 to Friday July 25 from 9 a.m. to noon. The theme for this year’s camp is True North: Trusting Jesus in a Wild World.
Described by Chelsea Smith, Children’s Ministry Director, “At True North, kids will discover what it means to trust Jesus in a wild world. They will participate in memorable Bible-learning activities, sing catchy songs, play teamwork-building games, experience one-of-a-kind Bible adventures, collect Bible memory buddies to remind them of Jesus’ love, and test out fun science experiments they’ll never forget. Plus, kids will learn to look for the evidence of God all around them through something called God sightings. Each day concludes with a closing gathering that helps everyone get involved in living what they’ve learned.” The True North Summer Kids Camp at Valley Brook is for kids from ages 4 through fourth grade and will run 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. each day.
Valley Brook offers programs for children, students and adults. The church holds worship services on Sundays at 10 a.m. on their campus at 160 Granville Road in North Granby which are streamed live and available on-demand on their website. Valley Brook’s vision is to “Love God. Love People. Change the World.” For more information, visit their website at valleybrook.cc
