WE SAVED YOU A SEAT
You know that feeling of I don’t belong
here? The quiet middle-school cafeteria
panic of not knowing where to sit. It’s
funny how we grow up on paper — jobs,
kids, bills, calendars, but we still walk into a
room feeling the same way. We wonder: Is
itjust me? Am Ithe only one who’s lonely?
Somewhere between cafeterias and
carpool lines, we acquired 1,224 friends on
Instagram, but not one person we’d feel
comfortable calling in a crisis. We got
busy, started using ChatGPT as our
therapist, and now we spend more time
analyzing our lives than living them. We’re
great at managing schedules and terrible
at saying, “Want to come over?”
Maybe it’s because we’ve spent the last few years optimizing our mornings, workouts and wardrobes into a boring beige minimalism. The result? We’re burnt out, lonely and tired of feeling overwhelmed. It’s time to slow things down. Less maximizing every minute, more backyard hangs. More remembering who we are when we’re not doing it all alone. We’re longing for more life and real community. Into that ache, Jesus speaks with surprising clarity: “I have called you friends.” And then he hands us to each other. This year at MomCo, we’re going back to something wildly simple: We’re bringing back analog friendship. It’s time to be known again. And so, how about we not play it cool? Let’s bring back earnestness.

MomCo, formerly MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers), is an important part of St. Thomas Anglican Church. We build circles of women who love each other like family, because we believe in the transformative potential of relationships and mentoring. Discussions about life, faith and parenting help equip moms, and give encouragement! We believe in the simple but revolutionary idea that remarkable things happen when moms come together!
