Mothers Of Preschoolers

Mothers of Preschoolers or MOPS is a support ministry for mothers who have children of pre-school age. Countryside Free Methodist Church hosts a chapter for the Thumb area of Michigan.

The MOPS moms develop close friendships, learn valuable lessons on raising children, have refreshments, make crafts and have the emotional support they need for the demanding years of raising children.

During the MOPS meetings, child care is provided so the moms can relax and enjoy their time. MOPS meets during the school year. Following are some testiments from those who have been involved:

"One thing I enjoy about MOPS is the opportunity to meet and fellowship with other ladies. Being new in the area, I'm not sure I'd be adjusting or acclimating as well without this group."

"MOPS has been wonderful to me. It gives me a chance to get out and make new friends."

"Gosh, where do I start? I love EVERYTHING! The girls are ALL GREAT. They care so much about one another. It's so nice to talk to other moms who are going through the same struggles and challenges. The crafts are nice too, they challenge your brain and creativity above a preschool level. The speakers are ALWAYS so informative. I enjoy listening and learning from them."
