MOPS

If you're a mother of a preschooler, you've got your hands full... We know how you feel, and we're here to help! There is nothing little about a mother's impact. The early years of child rearing are so significant and formative-so precious and fleeting... Moms know this, so they pour themselves into mothering. But who pours themselves into moms? We do. If you are a mom who:

  • is pregnant or has a newborn through kindergartner
  • desires to make new friends
  • wants to share the challenges and joys of motherhood
  • is looking for spiritual growth through trusted resources
  • wants to learn more about raising your children in a Christian home
  • enjoys giving back to the community

...please join us!

MOPS stands for Mothers of Preschoolers, a program designed to nurture mothers with newborns through kindergarten as well as pregnant moms. The women are of many ages and backgrounds, but share the same desire- to be the best mothers they can be.

*For the 2020-2021 year, the Morning and Evening MOPS groups have been combined with options to meet on Thursday evenings and Friday mornings. A MOMSnext small group expands the reach to moms with Elementary aged children.

What is MOPS at Creekside?
MOPS at Creekside provides an inviting environment where women can come-just as they are-to build friendships, be encouraged and gain practical strategies all while their children are lovingly cared for in the MOPS Kids program. A typical meeting starts by sharing a meal together. There is usually a craft project or speaker on a motherhood topic. Discussion groups allow you personal time with a smaller group of moms to share ideas, thoughts and experiences. Also, in attendance each meeting are seasoned moms there to encourage, mentor and give us practical advice based on their experience and wisdom. We close with prayer requests and door prizes.

*For the 2020-2021 year, both in-person and virtual meeting options will be offered. Childcare will be available for in-person Friday morning meetings (home groups). Please note that if Forsyth County schools move to 100% virtual, MOPS meetings will also move to 100% virtual.

What will my children do?
MOPS Kids is a quality children's ministry. Our little ones are loved and nurtured during our MOPS meeting. This program includes classes for infants through pre-k. Children will enjoy stories, games, free play, crafts, music and a healthy snack. You may attend MOPS with or without your children.

Holiday Showcase

JOIN US FOR A FABULOUS ANNUAL EVENT FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY

The Holiday Showcase and Creekside Holiday Cafe are a tradition at Creekside. For two days, a Friday and Saturday in early November of each year, our church campus becomes a place for families from the community to gather to enjoy fellowship, fun, shopping, and dining.

More Info for 2020 Showcase and Vendors

The first Holiday Showcase began as a way to help support home base business owners who were members of the MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) ministry. Since then, the event has become the main fundraiser to support the MOPS ministry's financial needs.

Each year you will enjoy unique Christmas shopping - with 50+ vendors providing gift and home decor items. Each year there is something new and special to enjoy. We invite you to join us!

Now accepting applications for the Creekside MOPS Holiday Showcase which is targeted for November 13-14. Church leadership is continually assessing the COVID-19 updates and how that pertains to ministries and events at Creekside Church. 

*A decision as to whether the event will take place will be made on October 2. All vendor checks will be held until then. If the event does take place, there will be fewer vendors and more space between booths and in walkways to accommodate social distancing.

Please contact   for a vendor application and/or with any questions.
