!!!
MOPS stands for
Mothers of Preschoolers (birth
through kindergarten),
an international support network of women who share the common
bond of pre-school age children. MOPS exists to meet the needs
of every mom - urban, suburban and rural moms, stay-at-home and
working moms, teen, single and married moms - moms with different
lifestyles who all share a similar desire to be the very best moms
they can be! MOPS recognizes that the years from infancy through
kindergarten are foundational in a mother-child relationship and are
filled with unique needs.
MOPS helps moms
through relationships established in the context of a local group
that provides a caring atmosphere for today's mother of young
children.
dec-MOPS
provides special time with other moms to socialize, hear speakers
address topics relevant to this stage in life, participate in
discussion groups and creative activities in an open Christ-centered
atmosphere.
MOPPETS
is our childcare program provided for the preschoolers joining mom
for these mornings. Infants and young toddlers receive
individualized care per Mom's instruction in our Nursery. Two
through six-year-olds enjoy Bible stories, crafts, and snacks in age
appropriate playgroups under caring supervision. Babies (under 6
months or nursing babies) of considerate moms are welcome to be in
the meeting with mom
