MOPS - Mothers of
Preschoolers.
MOPS International exists to meet the needs of
every mom who share a similar desire to be the
very best moms they can be!
MOPS recognizes that the years from
infancy through kindergarten are foundational in the mother-child
relationship and are filled with unique needs. For over 35
years, MOPS has been creating authentic communities where moms
gather together to experience encouragement, hope, support and
spiritual growth — all to help them impact their families,
communities and world.
MOPS helps moms through
relationships established in the context of local groups that
provide a caring atmosphere for today's mother of young
children. More than 4,050 MOPS groups gather in churches
throughout the United States and in 30 other countries to meet
the needs of women each year. Trinity Church
