is an international, non-denominational organization that has
grown to include over 3000 chartered groups that meet in 12 countries
around the world. Moms of all ages, faiths, and backgrounds come
together monthly to support one another in the belief that mothering
matters. The emphasis of MOPS is on mothers and their own spiritual,
emotional, physical, and social needs.
MOPS of Chelsea First United Methodist Church meets on the second
and fourth Fridays of the month at 9
am from September – May. Free childcare is provided so that moms
have uninterrupted time to connect, share experiences, and discuss
the joys and challenges of parenting young children. A typical
meeting includes breakfast, a short discussion led by a MOPS Mentor
Mom who has been through the challenging early years of mothering,
an outside speaker, discussion and a creative activity. The
theme for 2007-2008 is The HOME Factor: Begin here ... Go
there
