M.E. Moms

Westminster Café • Breakout Room 89

M.E. (Mary and Elizabeth) Moms is a space for moms with littles who could just use a moment: a moment to breathe, a moment to connect with other mamas, a moment to pray together, a moment to think about something other than that day’s long to-do list.

As an added bonus, we’ll do this with a few moms whose “littles” aren’t little anymore, moms who’ve said yes to being a voice of encouragement, perspective, and perhaps comedic relief with us along the way.

Email Ashley Higgins with questions (ahiggins@nashvillewpc.org).

(Childcare for kids not yet in grade school is provided for those who need.)

6:00 p.m. | How to Human with Carlos Whittaker

These feel like crazy times. We’re agitated, fighting, and wrestling with big issues. It can feel like we’re less connected than ever to one another and to God. It’s a perfect storm: debilitating anxiety, crashing relationships, and forgetting what it feels like to be human.

When it feels impossible to love our neighbor the way Christ commands, Carlos will help his audience shift from “me” to “we” to “everybody” in a three-part journey to be human, see fellow humans, and free those around us. 

Your community will walk away feeling inspired to help others, hope fiercely, and experience the thrill of being fully human. Carlos uses scripture to guide his audience toward a radical path of love– one that requires us to become builders rather than demolitionists. One that gets personal. One that moves toward others in faith rather than away in fear.

Saturday, March 1 (Childcare is available for each session)

Join us for all or part of the day. Cost for lunch is $10.

9:00 a.m. | Unplugging Childhood with Erin Loechner

The truth is, our society’s fixation on devices is diminishing our lives. We see it. We feel it. We know it. But let’s stop blaming ourselves, and certainly not our kids. This is the world we’ve given to them. It’s all they’ve ever known. So, what’s the alternative? In this engaging, interactive workshop, NYT Bestselling Author and Editor Erin Loechner will guide us through a series of specific, practical, and actionable steps to rally our villages and opt out… together.

Let’s finally – ultimately – give our kids what technology can’t: a better world.

10:30 a.m. | Follow Me with Adam DeVries

We spend years preparing teenagers to drive a car. When it comes to technology, often we don’t prepare them at all. Young people are regularly given access to technology with the assumption that they know how to navigate the wireless world safely. That’s like giving a 15 year old keys to acar and saying, “good luck.”

Follow Me helps families (youth AND adults) rethink and be more intentional with the way they use technology. Many times our devices convince us to settle for fitting in when what we really need is belonging. It’s our hope that participants in this session will learn ways to use technology to foster genuine relationships rather than constant comparison.

12:00 p.m. | Lunch Together ($10/person)

1:30 p.m. | Parenting Adult Children with Dr. Lauren Spooner

Parenting Adult Children- no one wrote us a guide book! Some of us didn’t even realize we’d still be parenting after we “graduated” the raising kids phase of life. Whether you are entering the season of parenting an adult child or have been a parent of an adult child for years, this one is for you. 

In this session, Dr. Spooner shares her expertise on parental guidance and support for adults as they encounter the challenges of coming of age. She focuses on the importance of being intentional about fostering maturity and independence even before the point of coming of age, avoiding parent traps in the process, and how parents might yield to the personal transforming work of the Holy Spirit when faced with intergenerational conflicts. Transformation and spiritual growth in the parent/adult child relationship is possible. Welcome to this dynamic season of life!

1:30 p.m. | Holy and Whole with Jami Nato

As we age, our bodies bear witness to the lives we’ve lived-the joys and sorrows we’ve carried and the countless ordinary moments God has used to shape us. Yet, in a world obsessed with youth and perfection, loving the bodies we have can feel really difficult. Just scrolling Instagram for three seconds, and you’re bombarded with messages that your body isn’t enough. Even worse, some faith spaces teach that our bodies don’t matter, only our spirituality. It’s time to come back to a holistic view of the goodness of our bodies and their role in God’s work.

With her signature blend of humor and awkward honesty, Jami offers a biblical perspective on self-image and aging, reminding us that our worth isn’t tied to our reflection but to the Creator who calls us His own. Whether you’re navigating new laugh lines, unexpected aches, or a shifting sense of identity, this talk will encourage and equip you to see your body as a beautiful part of God’s work and your purpose.
