Hope Box Gathering

Please join us for a Hope Box Gathering with Arielle Staal.
After a devastating 11-week miscarriage and almost no resources with what to do with her pain, Arielle found a group called Hope Mommies. This support group and nonprofit has been instrumental in her and many others mental, emotional and spiritual recovery after loss. Her wish is that every mom who experiences loss may have access to these resources as well. A great place to start is with a Hope Box.Hope Boxes are a gift that invites grieving moms into our community, and lets them know that, even in the brokenness, there is a God who sees and cares for them. These boxes contain comfort items and many resources on where to find hope and support groups. For more info go to https://hopemommies.org/hope-boxes

In honor of her “Hope baby” Phoenix, Arielle is hosting a Hope Box gathering. During this gathering we will put together these hope boxes with the fundraising that we have received. We will also be writing handwritten cards and letters to add to the box, showing our support and love for the mom that opens it.

All women are welcome but space is limited to 25 so please register in advance. As always, babies in arms are also welcome.

Even if you never experienced loss, you are welcome to come and show support! February 15th would have been baby Phoenix’s due date, so this is a special time. For those that cannot attend, letters to hope box moms can be dropped off at Keeping Pace or mailed to Arielle. Please email AMS.Lamaze@gmail.com if you have any questions.

Saturday, February 15th – 3:30-5:30PM

Please enter through our Baby Cafe entrance.

**Please note: this is a women-only event**

NEW Big Hearts, Small Feet Volunteer Program

This is a volunteer program for brand new Moms that are home with their infants under 8 months of age. Keeping Pace is constantly looking for new classes and ways to help connect our New Mamas, get them out of the house and helping them to make and meet new friends. This program will allow just that! There are so many daily tasks and jobs that need to get accomplished here at Keeping Pace with Multiple Miracles in order to keep things running smoothly. From helping to sort and organize baby clothes, to matching and sizing our baby shoes. This program allows for a New Mom to come with her infant(s), volunteer a few hours with other new mamas and babies, and earn not only volunteer hours but credits towards their purchases. For every 10 hours volunteered, you will earn a $50 gift card to Keeping Pace. You will also get to choose (2) classes or groups to attend for FREE!
Big Hearts, Small Feet will meet in our NEST on Fridays from 12-2.

Toddler Art and Stories

The overall goal of toddler art is to introduce students to a wide variety of art materials and concepts. Most art projects will be loosely associated with toddler friendly books and stories. Students will participate in creating a simplified craft that is tailored to our littlest artists’ abilities and interests. Projects will be minimally messy but parents should prepare their child appropriately for being in an artistic environment. Parents should also be prepared to help their little artist when the use of scissors or other tools are needed. However, we encourage our littles to flex their creative muscle and create independently whenever possible. Students will engage with art mediums and materials presented and be able to take home their work.
 11:30-12:30 pm
$36 for all 3 classes
Drop in: $15 a class.
