is a ministry dedicated to the mothers of young children. From the
moment a mother discovers she is pregnant until her youngest child
enters first grade she is eligible to be part of MOPS. The MOPS
group meets in the evening throughout the school year on the second
Monday of the month. We will also schedule some daytime activities
with our children. Our meetings focus on mothering because
mothering matters.
