Join the Adventure

The MOPS International theme for 2008-09 is Adventures in Mothering. This theme equips moms to learn more about themselves as they go through the adventure of motherhood. They will celebrate and embrace the fun in the experiences, even in the midst of daily mom life that stretches them emotionally and spiritually.

The metaphor for Adventures in Mothering is an amusement park. With the sights, sounds, tastes and smells of the amusement park, motherhood might feel like a sensory overload. But your MOPS group will enjoy this together and learn more about themselves as women, moms and leaders.

A theme provides a fun way to organize the MOPS year. The underlying reason for using a theme is to allow all MOPS groups to focus on a scriptural principle that will be developed throughout the year. The theme verse for Adventures in Mothering is Ephesians 3:18: “…how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ.” The dimensions of this verse express how God is with us in our mothering adventure. For the moms in your group who are exploring and wondering about faith in Jesus, the theme Adventures in Mothering is a winsome and fun way to organize content. As the year unfolds, your MOPS group will examine the practical aspects of the theme and then move toward spiritual truth. The knowledge that God is with us on the mothering adventure gives hope. God’s love is big enough for the magnitude of the adventure!

 

 

MOPS is about...

  • celebrating motherhood

  • meeting needs

  • making connections

 

MOPS stands for Mothers Of Preschoolers.  We exist to equip, encourage and develop every mother of preschoolers to realize her potential as a woman, mother, and leader in the name of Jesus Christ.   MOPS is all about celebrating motherhood, making connections and meeting needs through relationships and resources.  We recognize that the years from infancy through kindergarten are foundational in a mother-child relationship and are filled with unique needs.  Together, we can move from survive to thrive through our fun times of connection and by learning from those who have gone before us--and lived to tell about it!
