The Ministry of Mothers Sharing (MOMS) creates in women an awareness of the inner sacred self, while at the same time teaching
them new ways to inspire, encourage and affirm each other. Through the process of personal and spiritual growth, women have the opportunity to clarify their
values, claim their own giftedness and bring these new strengths to their family relationships and to the Christian Community.
