Mother’s Day Giveaway!

May 3, 2011 by Caryn 5 Comments

So…in honor of Mother’s Day AND the debut of my brand-new, redesigned site (thanks to Marc Miller @ Big Ocean Studios!), a few of my Redbud Writers Guild friends and I have come up with a great giveaway! A four-book package with a retail value of like 50 bucks or something. (Maybe, I haven’t even added it up–but it’s a good guess.) Woo-Hoo! 

As my friend (and one of the authors) Helen Lee writes on her blog about this giveaway: “Mother’s Day is a time when moms usually receive flowers, a nice meal, and cards with heartfelt sentiments. Those are all great gifts, and I certainly hope to receive some or all of those things this Sunday! But what do mothers really need in their lives? How about a sense of calling and purpose? Inspiration to be all that God has created her to be? Practical examples and ideas to live in a more Christ-honoring way? If these sounds like gifts you’d like to receive this Mother’s Day, I have just the giveaway for you: a copy of The Missional Mom PLUS three other amazing books written by and for moms that will fill your mind, heart and soul with stories, wisdom and wit: Global Soccer Mom by Shayne Moore, Green Mama by Tracey Bianchi, and Mama’s Got a Fake I.D. by Caryn Rivadeneira. Flowers and memories of nice dinners will fade away, but these books will challenge and encourage you for years to come!”

So true, right?

Anyway, if you’d like to enter for this contest, all you have to do is sign up for my e-newsletter (just over there to the right. See?). My newsletter comes out once and month and is totally non-intrusive. It’s designed to give you a quick bit of useful info or totally life-changing wisdom (well….) or a quick laugh as well as to keep you up to date on some writing or speaking happenings.

[Update from orignal post.]

THIS JUST IN: I totally forgot an important piece of this contest…. There are more ways to win than on my site alone. You can also enter to win by doing the following things:

–Comment below about what you’d like most this Mother’s Day

–”Like” The Missional Mom’s Facebook page

–Tweet or tell your FB friends about the giveaway, linking to this page

–”Like” Global Soccer Mom’s Facebook page

–Comment on the Global Soccer Mom blog

–Comment on Tracey Bianchi’s blog

–Join Tracey Bianchi’s Facebook Group

And then–THEN–come back here and leave a comment letting me know you did this. You’ll be entered twice on my site–as well as on their site. Make sense? Whew. Hope you win!

    The best thing about Mother’s day is the gift of being a mom. Love the give away and signed up for a newsletter and liked everything.

    I cant imagine I need or should want anything more. The only thing I would want on Mother’s Day is knowing where all of my children stand in terms of eternity!!!

    Hi Caryn,

    I have completed all actions. I hosted a fellowship for some moms from my church on last week and they decided to read Helen and Shayne’s books over the summer. We will meet once a month. I would love to be able to give your and Tracey’s books away to a special mom when we meet again in June. Blessings, Natasha
