FAQs

Just bring yourself and a friend, if you like! At this point in the ministry, we are happy to take care of the coffee and pastries. If we continue to grow to a point where we cannot manage the food ourselves, we will let you know!
-
YES! Come anytime you like, and stay as long as you like! We know life is busy and even just a short time “away” can be life-giving. Come have a quick cup of coffee and then go about your weekend.

Coffee and pastries will be ready anytime after 8:00 a.m.! There is no formal sit-down or meal time. Stay and eat with us or grab and go as you begin your weekend!

While we love the enthusiasm, we ask that you don’t do a broad invitation via social media, but rather a more intentional personal invitation to your close friends whom you think may enjoy being with us at Among Women. The gatherings are currently being held in our home(s) and we’d like to keep the growth steady and organic as we evolve.
We want to say “hi” but please don’t make us post a photo of ourselves.
We’re Maggie and Erin and we just want to have a hot cup of coffee without reheating it eight times in the microwave. And we want that for you as well.
You’ve probably seen us at school pickup or at Mass with our families. Those quick chats are lovely, but we believe spending a little quality time with women in the same stage of life is life-giving and, frankly, essential to surviving and thriving in motherhood. We thought we’d start by inviting women into our homes for a light breakfast, and see where it goes. Thanks for walking with us!

When something is “share-worthy,” we will post it here! A recipe, a link to an article we discussed at a gathering, or an upcoming event for women in the archdiocese…whatever comes across our desk (or kitchen counter).
