Single Parent Holiday Night Out!!

Single parents are invited to the S'Moms Holiday Night Out on Dec. 4, 6-9:00 p.m. at Gateway Christian Church. We know this year has been especially tough for so many people; we are hoping to help make things a little easier for you. You can drop off your children for free childcare and fun activities, pick up a special gift for yourself, and then spend a few free hours for shopping or just free time! After returning, free gift-wrapping and assistance will be available while the children are still busy. Bring the gifts you may already have at home to wrap also! Reservations required; call (314) 821-2156 or email gccsmoms@gmail.com. This event is totally no cost to you!

Wonderful S'Moms Brunch!

We all had a wonderful time at the S'Moms Brunch, and were glad to see all the ladies that could come. JoEllen's cello music was lovely, and Debbie had so many special dishes to enjoy ! Many thanks to all the hands that made it possible.

If you didn't make it for the Brunch, stay tuned for other events coming up. We know you have a lot to juggle, so just come when you're able, even if it's a last-minute decision. We understand! :)

Welcome

Life sometimes feels like a struggle. Okay, let us be honest, for a single mom, life might always feel like a struggle. For a single parent, the day never seems to end. There is mom the nurse, the taxi driver, the chef, the cheerleader, the housekeeper, the bill payer, and sometimes the mom that is the dad too. S’Moms was formed just for that multi-purpose single mom.

We are just starting to build this blog. Eventually, we hope that you will see it as a resource center and a place just for you. There will be S’Moms events throughout the year, which will include mom pampering days, Movie and Dessert nights (with lots of chocolate), back to school assistance, and a Christmastime Mom’s Night Out. All events will be no cost to the mom and include free childcare services.

We also have a Community Calendar to the left. This calendar will list free and cheap events around the St. Louis area for you and your family. We hope that through these tough times that this will bless you with events that you can afford. As a group, we will also attend some community events together.

We hope you find support and encouragement from other single moms here.
