Be Strong!

Strength is part of this year's theme in MOPS. This is a good one, especially during these crazy times. This was the theme we chose for the month, too. Our first meeting in October was a yoga meeting. Our very own, Danielle led us in a spiritual flow focusing on core strength. She spoke to us about diastasis recti (the separation of your "six pack" muscles after pregnancy) and gave some tips on fixing that with yoga moves.


MOPS International sends us a bunch of meeting material. We used this (for the first time) for our second meeting of the month. We worked in groups to build a tower out of spaghetti and marshmallows then listened to Toni Greco talk about building mental stamina. Afterwards we had a really authentic conversation about how we are using these tools during this COVID pandemic.


Kate put together a BINGO night at Lillians one night this month. We did not come home as big winners but it was still nice to have a night out and lucky to snag a table!


We are still welcoming new members and looking for nursery workers. Come hang out with us! "Better Moms Make a Better World"!

All for Love

Registration for the 2021-2022 is officially out! Click here to register. Come join us! Below is a note from MOPS International on the new theme for the year: Here at MOPS, we choose a theme to rally around each year—a theme that inspires, encourages, and speaks into our mothering journeys. Last month, we unveiled our brand-new theme (You can watch the reveal video   ) for the next year, and we are obsessed. After a year spent hunkering down, living smaller, and experiencing a little more fear and anxiety than usual, we are declaring this is the year of going big. It’s a year of fresh starts and turning ordinary experiences into extraordinary ones.  Enthusiasm will replace worry. Friendship will replace loneliness. No longer will we wait to “get back to normal”; instead, we will start making space for the new things God has for us. We will become less guarded and more daring because this is our year to live ALL FOR LOVE.

We Are Live!

It's official! The new MOPS group has been started! Technically, I have to complete a bunch of training courses before we can be listed as a group on mops.org. But we are rockin' and rollin'! We have space reserved for the fall, nursery workers committed and a few leadership members brewing. This is going to be good! Please stay tuned for registration information in the next month.
