Welcome to Lakes Area MOPS! I’m so glad that despite your busy schedule, you have chosen to come alongside other moms, so we can build each other up as women, as mothers, friends and as leaders.

Moms have so many choices: work, stay home, public or home school, and many battle with the whole quality vs. quantity of time spent with their children. This fall brings our first ever evening MOPS meeting. I’m hopeful that this can help us bridge the gaps between the “working” moms and “stay-at-home” moms. We have different situations, different kids, different stressors; but we all desire to be the best moms we can be.

Proverbs 8:10 instructs us to “Choose discipline over silver and knowledge over the finest gold.” You are making an investment in yourself, your family and your relationships by choosing to be part of the mothering community we call MOPS.

A word from Steph

Even if you’re in denial, the seasons are changing and fall is upon us. And as we’re settling into our new routines, whether it’s getting kids off to school or homeschooling, stop and take a moment to mark Tuesday, September 18th on your calendar.

Yep – it’s the first ever Lakes Area MOPS evening meeting! We’ll be starting at 6:30 p.m. so come a few minutes early to get your kiddos settled in MOPPETS and join us for some fun and fellowship with some friends – old and new.

Get registered, if you haven’t already. The Steering Team Leaders are all working diligently to accommodate for childcare and creative activities but we need to know who’s coming (especially kiddos!).

I’m looking forward to seeing you all in a week! – Steph
