Feedback from Mum To Mum morning

Saturday morning was a rare opportunity for some of us Mums to get away for a few hours and to think, talk and learn about motherhood without being in the thick of it!
We got together over tea/coffee & yummy muffins (always a good start to a morning). Trich, a mother and now grandmother herself, talked to us as a fellow woman, wife and mother- understanding, practical and down-to-earth, yet with the wisdom, discernment & practical ideas that come from years of working with families. We had the chance to think about how many roles we actually play on a daily basis, how to manage and prioritize our time, and the importance of carving out time for ourselves &, where applicable, our marriages.
Most importantly, we were reminded of the importance of all of these relationships/ tasks being rooted in our relationship to God as His precious, beloved daughter. We also chatted about how we would like to see MumToMum worked out practically and ideas that we would be interested in following up. Trich finished by praying for each of us individually and we were all blessed by her prayerful insight. The morning ended with a really tasty lunch- a very enjoyable end to a very enjoyable morning.

Marriage Refreshment Conference

Date: Friday 6th Nov. and Saturday 7th Nov.
Timing: 7 – 9.30pm on Friday, 9.30 – 3.30pm on Saturday
Location: CORE Church
Time to Focus, Time for Each Other, Time to Build
We are delighted that Derek and Trich Dodd who run YWAM Family Life Resources, a ministry focused on strengthening and supporting the Family, are joining us to lead this conference.
Six seminars looking at different aspects of married life will give you time, and a wonderful opportunity, to focus on your marriage relationship and build towards it’s future. These seminars are based on Christian principles, but will be accessible and relevant for everyone, whatever your background.
Trich and Derek made what our friends say about marriage courses “as a meaningless tick the box exercise” into a wonderful preparation time; giving us a solid foundation upon which to build our marriage. Through their wisdom and humility Derek and Trich created an open and safe atmosphere where God could lead us to pray, to set aside and bring healing to the brokenness in our lives. We entered into marriage without the baggage that could have so easily hindered our relationship.

Please pick up a flier or check out the website for more details on the seminar topics and conference timings.
Cost: “” Euro per couple
This includes Friday & Saturday seminars, course materials, lunch on Saturday and refreshments during the conference
In order to help us prepare materials and plan catering, please book in advance through the website or at the CORE office on 01 4735100.
Whether you are married 20 years or are still in your honeymoon period, we would really love to encourage you to join us for this marriage refreshment conference. We all have areas in our married life that we are really strong in and areas which we find more challenging. Often the busyness of everyday life can mean that it’s difficult to find the time to focus on our marriage relationship. This Friday night and Saturday will be a real oasis that will encourage and refresh you both in your journey together.
We would love to encourage you to book the time in your diary and come and join us,
Jon & Kathryn Kissell

We have had some major problems with our server since last Wednesday 7th October, with the result that we have not been able to send or receive emails.
We are hopeful that the problem has now been finally solved.
We regret any inconvenience this may have caused and would ask that if you have sent us emails since Wednesday 7th October, we would really appreciate if you would, please, resend them!
