MOPS - Mothers of Preschoolers Coming to Ingomar Church this fall! MOPS (“Mothers of Preschoolers”) is an international organization that strives to encourage and support mothers of preschoolers in their parenting and in their lives. Mothering is such an important job! MOPS helps women connect with other women in our community, supporting them socially, emotionally, and spiritually. Here is what women are saying about MOPS: “MOPS has enabled me to realize how precious these times are, and to get the views and advice of moms who have already been there.” “MOPS has brought me closer to God through friendships and conversations with other Christian mothers. It has taught me how integral God is in my parenting strategies, my marriage, and in our family life.” “MOPs has made me more comfortable talking to my children about God and the Bible ... my relationship with my husband has been strengthened ... and I feel spiritually enriched.” All mothers of infants through kindergarten-age children are invited to the MOPS group at Ingomar Church. The group will meet the first and third Thursdays of the month from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. beginning September 4, 2014 and ending May 21, 2015. Childcare will be provided. MOPS believes that “better moms make a better world.” Get the registration form and additional information at ingomarchurch.org. Please register as soon as possible, as space is limited.
