Mothers of preschoolers (MOPS)

MOPS is about...

  • Celebrating motherhood
  • Meeting needs
  • Making connections
  • Experiencing God's love ... through relationships and resources.

MOPS stands for Mothers of Preschoolers. MOPS exists to meet the needs of every mom - moms who are different in many ways, but who all share a similar desire to be the very best moms they can be! MOPS recognizes that the years from infancy to kindergarten are foundational in a mother-child relationship and are filled with unique needs.

MOPS helps moms through relationships established in the context of local groups like this one that provide a caring atmosphere for today's mother of young children. MOPS also encourages and supports mom through resources such as books and their website.

MEETING DATES AND TIMES

Our MOPS group meets on the first, third and fifth (when applicable) Wednesday of each month, from 9 - 11:15 a.m. during the school year. We meet every Wednesday during the summer at parks throughout the area.

Each of our meetings begins with a light breakfast, and features a speaker, a craft, and plenty of time to talk to other moms like you.

WHAT IS MOPS KIDS?

 Our MOPS KIDS program provides care for children ages six months through kindergarten. Babies younger than six months are welcome to stay with their mother during the meeting. While mothers attend the MOPS meeting, the children enjoy a program designed to meet their needs. The children are divided into age groups and are involved in planned activities.

Please help us provide a wonderful experience for your children by adhering to the following guidelines:

  • Each mom and her child must be registered to attend MOPS so that we can provide appropriate staffing for each classroom. Click   to contact us.
  • Bring a change of clothes for your children (including socks) and at least three diapers if your child is not potty trained.
  • Label all items (including bottles and cups) with child's name.

Other Classes

Throughout the year, we offer or promote various workshops and classes. Those listed below are some that are offered regularly. 

 

Living Your Strengths - We are fed the idea in our culture that to be acceptable we need to be well-rounded.  Though that is the prevailing notion, a closer look shows how untrue it actually is.  People who are really effective and really excited about life are generally those who have discovered what they do best and have found great ways to do it.
