Marriage

Since February is the month of LOVE, our theme in MOPS this month will be the very important relationship that we all share...our relationship with our husband/significant other (or the father of our child/children)!

You DO NOT want to miss this meeting, we will have a very special guest speaker joining us...Dawn Reeves!

Dawn has a passion for marriage. She has been writing, teaching, speaking and mentoring wives on the subject for over twenty years.

Dawn was married for nearly 38 years until her husband Hank passed away in 2004. Dawn continued to speak and teach, with Hank as the example of how God could work in the heart of an unsaved husband when his wife got out of the way. Dawn uses humor and tears to tell the story of how God resurrected her seemingly dead marriage, and how Hank came to faith and to lead his family in that faith for over twenty years.

Then God did an amazing thing and brought Jerry into her life. They married in a story that only God could write. Jerry also had a marriage ministry that he and his wife Sandra (who passed away in 2004 as well) had developed on the same subject of the resurrected marriage. Dawn and Jerry, with over 80 years of combined experience, have joined their studies and have spoken in several venues.

Dawn is currently working on certification as a Christian Life Coach, but she prefers to call her ministry, “Wife Coaching." Dawn and Jerry have four married children and seven grandchildren. Dawn’s four live near her in the DFW area and Jerry’s three granddaughters live in Africa.

Dawn still believes in happily ever after.

Doesn't her story sound incredible? I can't wait to hear what she has to say!

We will also have the privilege of talking with Donna Lambert about her vision for our upcoming Mom's Weekday Bible Study! I know many of you are just as excited as I am about starting this new time together every week!

See you Tuesday! Invite your friends!
