We all know that mothering changes everything. Our MOPS group is a great place to come, just as you are, to be rejuvenated and inspired. We provide a caring, accepting atmosphere for today’s mother of preschoolers. Here you have an opportunity to share concerns, explore areas of creativity, and hear instructions that equip you for the responsibilities of family and community. New friendships and smart approaches to tackling the challenges of motherhood are waiting for you!
MOPS is a non-denominational, Christian-based group – all mothers of preschoolers are welcome! The MOPS ministry brings the importance of motherhood to the forefront and provides mothers of young children a network of friends and resources for guidance and support.
Our open house will be on Thursday, August 26 from 9-11AM. During this time we will have a meal, meet and visit with each other, a craft, fill out member paperwork, and enjoy some "mom time" together. There will be childcare during this time, as there always is for children under kinder age. We'd love to catch up with old members as well as welcome new ones! That night we will have an evening open house from 5:30-7 for those who can't attend in the morning, and wish to still be a part of MOPS. We hope to see you there!
If you have any further questions, please contact our MOPS leader for 2010-2011, Katie Gross at 966-9457 or katie_leach2004@hotmail.com.
