Hope Local

❤️ Every child deserves the chance to grow up surrounded by love, support, and belonging.

That's why Slightly Classy Mahj Society is partnering with Hope Local for Mahjong for Hope on September 12.

Hope Local works every day to strengthen families, support foster and adoptive parents, advocate for children waiting for permanent families, and help prevent family crises before children enter foster care.

When you register for Mahjong for Hope, you're doing more than reserving a seat at the table. You're helping create hope and stability for children and families in our community.

Whether you're an experienced Mahjong player or just looking for a meaningful afternoon with friends, we'd love for you to join us.

🎀 September 12, 2026
🀄 12:00 PM – 4:00 PM

Grab a friend, learn something new, and help make a difference for local children and families.

At Abide Special Session: Marriage, we have an amazing panel of experienced couples ready for you, as well as some amazing breakout sessions. Hearing from people a little further down the road than you can be so encouraging, and it can help you feel less alone. After the panel, there will be an opportunity to attend breakout sessions with the same couples on the panel!

Here are the breakout sessions we are offering:

- Facing Trauma and Grief Together with Susan and Adam Paa
- Why Unity Matters More than Certainty with Candy and Aaron Mummert
- Dessert Date - If you'd like to spend some uninterrupted time with your spouse, this is your moment!

Unfortunately, we cannot provide childcare at this event. If you need financial assistance for childcare, please reach out to Karly at [email protected].

Partner with us as we pray for vulnerable children and families in need, right here, in our own communities! Please Lord, open the hearts of the ones you’ve called to serve. Be with the anointed ones you have called upon and help them hear your call to help these children in need. Help them to realize the purpose their lives have been created for and to step out into obedience. Bless them Lord! Amen
