Mütternander 2019 - Changing the World

After 9 months of planning and preparations, this year's 2019 Mütternander Conference was a huge success! This year's "Mama's Day Out" brought together 250 moms for a day at a church in Baden. The theme was "changing the world" and the main speaker, Jill Savage, how we can influence the world through our relationships and parenting. It was truly a blessed day, and it was a privilege to watch women connect and be encouraged. I am especially thankful for the chance to work together with 7 other amazing moms in putting this day together. I'm so thankful for our team and the great way we collaborated together on this conference, as well as the friendships that have come out of it!

Here are a few photo highlights from this great day!

Bringing Moms Together

Mütternander Planning Team

 Last Saturday, I (Bethany) helped plan a daylong conference for Christian moms in Austria. The conference has been going on for about 15 years already and was originally started by an organization called "Hearts at Home". When the organization left Austria, the women planning the yearly conference wanted to keep going, so they founded their own non-profit so keep this great event going!

I was in charge of registration, so a lot of the time I invested was before the event even took place. On Saturday, I then had the joy of greeting all the moms as they arrived. It was amazing to see such a diverse group of moms from different backgrounds and ages come together to learn, encourage and worship. The day consisted of two main sessions, two breakout session, a lunch and free-time to chat, visit sponsor booths and even visit a wellness area with nail painting and massages. The conference was designed to be a free day for moms to relax, learn, enjoy and be encouraged.

I was incredibly grateful to be on the planning team and to be a part of this great event. I can't wait for next year!
