[quote=Anonymous]Good Shepard in Mount Vernon is very welcoming and has an active mother's group that meets on Wed mornings.  I work FT so I never went but do go to the mother's night out events, bunco and participate in the rummage sales. They also have a social justice committee and there have been some book club selections I have read, but never made it to the meetings.

We loved it but ultimately went back to St. Louis, our in bounds parish when our son was about to start school.  We are still registered at GS and sometimes choose to worship there.

St. Louis is more traditional.  Our son is in K, and I have felt really welcomed by the school staff.  I don't know about the mother's group, except that they have one.

But I love St. Charles.  We went there when we were first married and my kids attend Atrium classes there.  I believe there is a children's mass where the kids are dismissed inot the chapel and they do a kid version of the readings &  homily.  We happened upon it because our 4 YO was having a melt down about going into church, so we were calming down while sitting in the chapel.  In walked an army of kids.  Both my kids loved it.

Good Luck, it's hard to find a good fit.  [/quote]
