MOPS: Mothers of Preschoolers

Friday, August 15, 2008

Big news on the MOPS front, ladies! In an effort to better serve the moms of our church and our community, we are moving the bi-weekly MOPS meetings to Thursday mornings from 9 to 11 a.m., beginning September 11. (This is a month earlier than we normally start, so make sure to note this on your calendar!) We will be meeting in the dining room instead of the multi-purpose room in order to create a cozier atmosphere.

MOPPETS, our children's program, will benefit from some changes, as well. Children who are 2 years old (by September 1) will be participating in a new AWANA program called Puggles, and those over three years old will be joining with our AWANA Cubbies. These changes will allow for more structure and variety for the children, providing new and expanded opportunities for fun and learning and fellowship.

The Cubbies will stay in their Paradise Island room until 9:30 a.m., then be relocated with their leader to the multi-purpose room. During this time they will sing, salute the flags, review the weekly memory verse, view a puppet show with Cubbie Bear and his friends, listen to a weekly Bible story, recite memory verses, participate in crafts or relay games, then end with presenting badges and rewards and recognizing birthdays.

Please note: MOPS only meets twice a month but Cubbies are welcome and encouraged to attend weekly.

For more information about MOPS or to register, please click here to download a copy of the MOPS brochure. You can also download and print the AWANA registration form if your children will be eligible for Puggles and/or Cubbies.

Please don't hesitate to call, email, or leave a comment with any questions you may have!
