MOPS
MOPS stands for Mothers of Preschoolers, a program designed to nurture mothers with newborns through kindergarten as well as pregnant moms.
Am I a MOPS mom?
The women are of many ages and backgrounds, but share the same desire- to be the best mothers they can be. 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, has a newborn through kindergartner, or with our MOMSnext component, we also support moms with Elementary-aged children!
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!
What is MOPS at Creekside?
MOPS at Creekside meets from 9:45 am until 12:00 pm, typically on two Fridays per month during the school year. Each meeting 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 (drop-off starts at 9:30 am). A typical meeting starts by sharing breakfast 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 at 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.
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 Kindergarten. Children will enjoy stories, games, free play, crafts, music, and a snack. You may attend MOPS with, or without your children.
How do I join MOPS?
Mothers of all denominations, as well as, mothers who do not attend church are welcome. Participation in a MOPS group requires membership with MOPS International. For only $32 a year, a mom can register for membership and receive a one-year subscription to the MOPS magazine, weekly MOM-Email messages, and many other great benefits. Our Creekside MOPS dues are $50 for the year, for moms with childcare, and $35 without childcare. Because of fundraisers, the dues do not cover all of our expenses, however, they do help cover costs associated with ministry, childcare, the MOPS Kids program, crafts, speakers, food & drink, decorations, etc. Scholarships are available as well. Please email
for more information on scholarships. We never want financial difficulties to be a barrier for any mama to join MOPS. Registration is required to attend meetings, however, you may attend your first meeting free of charge with an RSVP. For questions and to RSVP for a meeting, please email
. We hope to see you there!
