Following the "Coreology" theme, Lauren Merkel assisted us in determining our MotherStyles personality, based on the Myers Briggs Personality Test. To discover your MotherStyle Personality, you can take the quiz: http://quizzes.familyeducation.com/motherstyles (FYI, for those of you who attended the meeting, this quiz is more in depth than the one we took at the meeting. I came up with different results for both tests.)

Tile coasters craft:
I'm not the least bit crafty, but I really enjoyed making the stamped tile coasters. They were so easy to make, and a lot of moms talked about how great these would be as Christmas gifts. Thanks, Jennifer, for organizing this great craft!
Missions:
Kathleen is planning a day for us to volunteer at the East Fort Bend Humans Needs Ministry food pantry on Monday, November 22 from 9am-Noon. Childcare will be available upon request at CUMC for $3 per child. More details are to come.
Pajama Party:
Jill passed around a sign up sheet for those who are interested and able to attend this year's pajama party, held in Rms. 210/211 at Christ Church from 7-10pm. There will be a chocolate fountain, pizza, guac and chips, salad, etc. Come in your comfy PJs for lots of food, games, and fellowship!
Play Date at Sugar Land Memorial Park:
Tentatively planned for Monday, October 18 or Wednesday, October 27
We are planning on going to Dewberry Farms on Monday, November 1 at 9:30am. The group rate is $6/person. Children 2 and under are free.
Charlotte led a wonderful devotional focused on God's personality. Through scripture, she showed us how God is:
- Knowable (Jeremiah 9:23-24)
- Approachable (Matthew 7:7-8)
- Creative (Psalm 147:5 and 121:1-2)
- Forgiving (Romans 3:22-25)
- Honest (Psalm 119:105)
- Capable (Ephesians 3:20)
If you missed our meeting, I recommend spending some quiet time reading and meditating on these scriptures. Even if you did attend the meeting, reflect on some of these scriptures. God will be delighted to spend this time with you.
What else?
We voted in Julie Chance as our Outreach Fund Coordinator for the year. Congrats and thank you, Julie!
Next meeting (Oct. 22):
We'll be doing yoga, so wear comfortable clothes, and bring a yoga mat if you have one.
Have a great week!
