About

The Little Way for Moms and Kids is a ministry of Immaculate Conception Catholic Church. Membership is open to all moms in our church parish as well as nearby Catholic moms who want to participate because we’re cool like that. (As an ICC-based ministry, meetings and activities will be local.) All mothers are welcome—new, experienced, expecting, nursing—you get the idea!

It is free to join. If you’re interested in participating, please take the time to complete our Member Survey or e-mail the Ministry Coordinator.

Vision

Through God’s Grace and the help of the Holy Spirit, The Little Way for Moms and Kids will build up the Body of Christ through the little ways of motherhood and childhood.

Mission

Our mission is to connect Catholic moms and kids for faith, fun, and friendship.

Objectives

  1. To provide fellowship with other Catholic mothers and a playgroup for our children
  2. To serve our church community in little ways suitable for members with young, active children
  3. To welcome new members
  4. To keep everyone informed of meetings, events, and the playgroup schedule

The Little Way

We take inspiration for our ministry’s name from the life and spirituality of Saint Therese of Lisieux. She declared her vocation to be “Love,” and her “little way” was to trust in Jesus to make her holy and to practice good deeds and small, daily sacrifices.

Saint Therese reminds us that it is the little things that build up God’s Kingdom and inspires us to do the ordinary with extraordinary love.

Love.  Daily sacrifices. Little ways and little things. Doing the ordinary with the extraordinary love of a mother’s heart. Trusting in God to make us holy as we immerse ourselves in family life and the never-ending tasks of childrearing and homemaking…

Sounds like the Little Way for Moms and Kids to me. 🙂

As Catholic women, we can find inspiration and encouragement for our vocation of Motherhood from many sources: The church, God’s Word, the Sacraments, prayer, Our Blessed Mother Mary, Blessed Teresa of Calcutta, Saints Monica and Elizabeth Ann Seton—to name just a few. And of course, we have each other. 🙂
