Moms In Touch International impacts children and
schools world wide by
gathering mothers to pray
Passing the baton...
who is waiting to take it and run?
It’s
May. Wonderful, crazy May.
Moms know how hectic this time
of year can be. Before you are engulfed in year-end
activities and obligations, steal a few quiet moments to
look back—and to
look forward.
Reflect on all the wondrous ways God has heard and moved in your children and in your school this year. What about next year? Our hope and prayer is that every Moms In Touch group will keep praying until Jesus returns. Our group leaders are essential in helping us meet this goal, but we know as kids change schools, moms change MITI groups. Are you “graduating” to a new school next year? Is it time to pass the baton of leadership? Who is set to take it from you?
Paul counseled Timothy, “The things which you have heard from me … entrust these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also” (2 Timothy 2:2 NASB). As you prepare to move to the next MITI group, entrust your current group to another dedicated mom. Pray about your choice, and begin mentoring her and training her as a co-leader. Share your own experience with her; maybe even provide her with member sheets and a MITI booklet.
“How faithful the Lord is,” writes Jennifer Ross, Tennessee State Coordinator. “He sent women my way who supported me and encouraged me, who modeled lives of prayer. One was an older mom who plopped the MITI Leader’s Guide in my lap at a MOPS event. Another was a leader who challenged me to start a group for my son’s school, but she didn’t stop there. She poured into me and held my hand while we were getting that group going.
“Which mom are you investing in? What mom are you pouring yourself into? Who is poised in the race ready to receive the baton of intercessory prayer from you as you carefully place it in her hand so she can run the next lap?”

training a co-leader, check out valuable material in the
MITI Leader’s Guide.

"What a joy and
privilege it is when individuals come up to
me after I speak. I hear their
stories; I hear their struggles. But
this woman was different. In anguish
she cried out, 'I'm angry'!"
