May Meeting Follow-up

 
Hello SoCal Mommy Patriots!

Dinner with BACHMANN

First of all, I'd like to invite you to a special fundraiser dinner for Congresswomen Michele Bachmann, on Friday, May 14 at 7pm, in San Diego. She will be the keynote speaker and available to take a group photo with us if we can get ten As A Mom members to host a table. The cost is $75 per person...this is $5 off the regular price. Let me know if you are interested ASAP! So far I have three moms who want to go. This should be a really fun time and a great opportunity to network with other conservative groups.

Meeting News

I also wanted to give you an update from our last meeting. Donna Woodrum from the Eagle Forum and the San Diego Director of Homemakers for America was our guest speaker. She shared with us her passion for our founding fathers vision of America. She also provided some thought provoking ideas on how we as moms can help to take back our country.

Book Club/Movie Night

I wanted to remind some of you that Sherri is hosting a study of "The 5000 Year Leap." We will be meeting the 3rd Friday of every month until we finish the book in August. In September we are hoping to switch to a movie night and pickup where we left off with our book club in October with a new book. If you are interested in participating, please let me know so we can be sure to include you on the evite.

Success Story

Finally, I wanted to share an encouraging story. For a while, I've been wanting to share with the women in my neighborhood Bible study my concern for our country and offer them an opportunity to learn more and get involved. These women are not politically active and I was very nervous about offending them or putting them off; thus I had procrastinated until low and behold, our study for the week was about activism. It was as if God had force the subject. To prepare for this discussion, I had called on several of the women in our As a Mom group to give me guidance and scripture relevant to the study. The short of it is, our entire bible study is now going to read "The 5000 Year Leap" and meet to discuss. We are also going to open the discussion up to the rest of the neighborhood. Talk about a step in the right direction. It is because of you that these women will learn about our Constitution and our Founders intentions for our country.

Thank you for being such a source of support. YOU ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE!!

In liberty,

Dana Matas
