MOPS (Mothers of Pre-Schoolers)

You don’t have to do mothering alone. Whether you need a friend to compare stories with, a shoulder to lean on, or ideas to help you be a better mom- MOPS is just the place for you. MOPS is a support group for moms with children from birth through kindergarten, focusing on the unique needs of moms in this phase of life. Join us to experience warmth and shared wisdom from other moms with a common desire to be the best mothers they can be.

In 2011-2012, MOPS invites you to join in the learning process as together we explore Momsense:  Bold • Loving • Sensible – Our theme this year equips moms to embrace their mothering instincts and develop their own parenting style while navigating through the myriad of daily mom decisions. Developing a mothering strategy is somewhat like playing a game — and this year’s theme is appropriately game related. Have fun being a mom! Playing games involves being bold and taking risks, loving those in the game with us and being sensible while figuring out what works and what doesn’t.

What Happens at a MOPS Meeting?

 

Our monthly meetings begin with socializing and brunch followed by a life-enriching speaker on a topic that relates to your everyday life.  The remainder of our time is spent in small groups where you will have an opportunity to discuss the speaker’s topic, joys or concerns in your personal life and to make connections with other moms. 

 

MOPS provides a morning of rest, rejuvenation, food, fellowship, support and affirmation for mothers of infants through kindergarten in a kind and accepting atmosphere. 

 

While you are attending the meeting, your children are also being enriched.  We provide a fun, nurturing environment for kids to play and learn in the MOPPETS program.  Each meeting has a bible based theme and craft.  They will also enjoy a snack.
