MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) |
|
MOPS exists for every
mom with children up to Kindergarten age - urban, suburban and rural moms,
stay-at-home and working moms, teen, single, and married moms - moms who
are very different but who share a similar desire: to be the very best mom
she can be!

What Do We Do?
Mothers of
Preschoolers (MOPS) is a great place for women to meet other women who
are mothers of young children and share the same joys and frustrations
that all moms do. MOPS helps mothers to establish new caring
relationships and make friends who encourage one another, laugh
together, share funny kid stories and support one another in times of
need. MOPS groups are voluntarily run by moms for moms.
During our time
together, moms reach out to each other with conversation, parenting
ideas, suggestions and other experiences. Our mentor moms open the
meeting with thought provoking devotions and we learn from guest
speakers who share parenting messages and useful information that all
mothers can enjoy! We delight in fun and fellowship and share an
occasional meal.
