Partnership in Action! 🤝

As we hit the 5-week mark for our in-person parenting classes at Arcadia Valley Chapel V Chapel, we want to take a moment to highlight their vital role as a partner in our Remote Parenting Program.

There has been a recent transition, and we want to share a heartening update: While Monarch FRC no longer has a physical building in Ironton, our mission to serve this community is as strong as ever. Great things are happening! By partnering with dedicated churches like AV Chapel, we are continuing to bridge the gap between virtual learning and hands-on community support.

The momentum continues tomorrow as we host our very first Mobile Boutique Shopping Day at this location! 🚐✨

This scheduled event is a special milestone for our current Iron County clients—both those attending in person and those participating virtually. We are so excited to see our families and provide them with this tangible layer of support right here in their own community.

A huge thank you to the team at AV Chapel for their hospitality and for helping us ensure that Monarch FRC remains a consistent, active presence in Iron County.

He is risen! 🙌✨

Today, we celebrate the greatest turning point in history. The stone is rolled away, the grave is empty, and death has lost its sting. Because He lives, we can face tomorrow with unshakable hope!

We are so grateful to walk this journey of faith with this incredible community. May your day be filled with the peace of His presence and the joy of His promise.

"He is not here; he has risen, just as he said." — Matthew 28:6

Big things take time to grow, and we are so excited to share some amazing progress from Van Buren! 🌱
​Back in September 2025, Van Buren First Baptist answered the call to serve as a virtual hub for Monarch FRC. We knew the need was there, and after a season of planting seeds and signing up families, we are officially in full swing!
​Currently, we have 5 active clients thriving in our Remote "Earn While You Learn" Parenting Program. These parents are putting in the work, and earlier this month, we got to celebrate that hard work in person!

​We brought our Mobile Boutique to Van Buren, where clients used the points they earned from their lessons to "shop" for:
​👶 Diapers & Wipes
​🍼 Baby Essentials
​✨ And so much more!

​Huge thank you to Van Buren First Baptist Church for being the bridge that connects these families to the resources they deserve. We’re just getting started! 🚀

Know someone who could benefit? Call us Monday through Thursday from 9 am to 3 pm to learn more about our Remote Parenting Program!

Change of scenery, same heart. ❤️

​Today is a bit bittersweet for us. While we’re excited to announce that our office has officially moved from Ironton to Farmington, saying "see you later" to our physical space in Iron County isn't easy.

​But here is what hasn't changed: Our commitment to Iron County and our surrounding rural neighbors is stronger than ever. A new zip code doesn't mean a new mission. If anything, this move allows us to grow our resources so we can show up even louder for the communities we love.

We aren't leaving; we're just leveling up so we can serve you better. 🚀

​Thank you to our clients, donors, and followers for growing with us!

We have some exciting updates to share with our Iron County family! At Monarch, we are in a season of change—and honestly, it is so good. Our hearts are focused more than ever on reaching families in every corner of the communities and counties surrounding us.

To make that happen, we’ve made a strategic decision to transition out of our Ironton office space on March 18th. Starting on March 19th, Beth and Mandy will be working from the Farmington office.

Why the shift?
Instead of investing in a physical building, we are shifting our focus to meeting people exactly where they are.
• Community-Hosted Classes: By partnering with local churches and using their beautiful facilities, we are growing our Remote Parenting Program. This allows us to bring our Earn While You Learn (EWYL) classes directly into your neighborhoods, with a much wider reach!
• Virtual Options: For those who can't meet in person, our virtual classes ensure that no parent is ever without support, regardless of their schedule or transportation.

We are still here for you!
Our "office" might look different, but our commitment to Iron County is stronger than ever. We are working hand-in-hand with local churches to bring hope and resources closer to your doorstep.
If you have questions, want to find a local church host site, or want to register for remote or virtual classes, contact Mandy at 573-431-6001.

Thank you for walking with us as we grow. Because of your support, we aren't just maintaining a space—we’re building a movement of hope across our entire region!

We have an URGENT NEED for DIAPERS! I know that is crazy. Who would have thought the Monarch FRC would ever need diapers?🤣 With all seriousness, though, diapers are always a need for pregnancy centers. We have clients whose little ones have allergies to diapers and require special diapers, such as Huggies. If you would like to donate diapers to Monarch FRC, we would gladly accept them. Thank you!
