Mom to Mom is a mentoring group for moms by moms. It offers:

• Practical, faith-based teaching on parenting and marriage
• Supportive interaction in small groups led by mentor moms
• A safe place to share the joys and concerns of motherhood
• Childcare with age-appropriate programs for infants through Age 6
• Talk and Play sessions during summer season

 
You are invited! Mom to Mom is a place where women can be educated, encouraged, and equipped for the most important job in all the world—parenting. Through practical, faith-based teaching on parenting and supportive interaction in small groups led by mentor moms, we wish to foster growth not only in our parenting skills but in our wholeness as women—intellectually, relationally, and spiritually.
 
Each Mom to Mom meeting includes a lecture or presentation on a topic pertinent to our lives as moms, followed by small group discussion with a mentor mom. This is a safe place to discuss how the topic applies to our own families, to share the joys and frustrations of motherhood, and to explore the promises and purposes God gives to each of us as moms.

Mark:  Follow Me
LifeGuide Series by James Hoover

In the New Testament Gospel of Mark, we meet Jesus, the man who is King.  But this king comes to serve—not to be served.  He eats with sinners rather than royalty.  His crown is made of thorns instead of gold.  Mark:  Follow Me introduces you to the compassionate, suffering, astonishing king who calls us to follow him.

Our annual NEDA women's retreat is held at Camp Spofford in Spofford, NH, on a weekend in September, Friday to Sunday. All are welcome for any or all of the retreat — even if you can only come for the day.  We also host an in house women's day retreat annually.

Held for women who are engaged or celebrating the birth of their first child at Faith EFC. Another reason for a get together!

We use this annual event to bring new and old friends together!

Meet whenever you have read an interesting book that you would like to discuss with other women.

1st and 3rd Saturdays of each month during the school year, 8-9:30am
Enjoy donuts and coffee while we fellowship and look into God’s Word. Our agenda is always relaxed and flexible. We seek to provide discipling, support, accountability, and fellowship with other men. We may study a Scripture reading, watch a video, or simply see where the Lord will lead our discussion, and we need you there to add your wisdom and insight!

Men's Breakfast meets the last Saturday of each month during the school year, 8-9:30am
The primary mission of the breakfast meetings is to create an atmosphere for men to share and connect with each other over a gourmet breakfast. You never know what delectable dish will be conjured up by the kitchen crew but you can always count on it being a delicious way to start your day. This event is intended to be a more relaxed environment for a visitor, so bring a friend or neighbor. We serve breakfast, followed by a short devotional presented by one of the attendees.

We encourage our men, as a group, to attend the annual NEDA Men's Retreat, held at Camp Spofford in Spofford, NH.  This retreat is traditionally held on the last weekend in September, Friday to Sunday. Contact the church office for specific dates and registration information. 

A number of men in the church enjoy playing golf.  Contact the church office to get connected.
