What is MOPS?
MOPS stands for Mothers of PreSchoolers. MOPS is a worldwide
nondenominational ministry that encourages mothers of young children,
who are adjusting to the joys and challenges of motherhood. MOPS is
about celebrating motherhood, meeting needs, making connections, and
experiencing God's love. MOPS International exists to encourage, equip
and develop every mother of preschoolers to realize her potential as a
woman, mother, and leader in the name of Jesus Christ. While many
organizations focus on making a better world for our children, MOPS
focuses on making better children for our world. How? By meeting the
needs of their mothers, because when we impact a mom, we impact a
child, and ultimately, impact the world. Better moms make a better
world.
The mission of MOPS of Martha
Bowman MUMC is to be an open and supportive fellowship that exemplies
Christ's love through instruction, nurture, service and outreach to
mothers of preschoolers for the glory of Jesus Christ.
