I have come
that they may have life, and have it to the
full.
John 10:10
Theme:
Fresh Air,What Every Mom Needs
Every mom wants freedom, balance, perspective and rest. MOPS
International exists to equip, encourage and develop moms. The components of
our annual theme provide a meaningful and fun way to organize the MOPS
program throughout the year, but the reason for having an annual theme is
much deeper. It reinforces one scriptural truth through a variety of
communication, teaching and training methods, so that each mom who is
involved in MOPS will realize her potential throughout the year.
Everyone desires to live a full life, but the
busyness of daily life for a mom may cloud the
fullness that she can have through a
relationship with Jesus. The foundation for the
Fresh Air theme is that fullness
only comes through knowing Jesus; however, this
theme builds during the year. Moms coming into
MOPS in the fall may be only seeking refreshment
and focusing on basic needs such as help and
relationship. Throughout the course of the MOPS
year, the need for hope is introduced, and the
fullness that only Jesus can offer is modeled by
MOPS leaders.

Support
- Moms need to know that we believe mothering matters and
we support them. It is easy to feel
the pressure as a mother to be everything to many people. As a result moms
end up tired, worn out and overwhelmed. In the hustle and bustle of being
the primary care giver of small children many feel they have lost their
freedom. MOPS works to remind women of the freedom they can experience as a
mother with just a little encouragement and support.
Topics
-
Through the year topics are planned to focus on the nine identified
needs of mothers: significance, identity, growth, instruction, intimacy,
recreation, help, perspective and hope. MOPS offers a safe place for mothers
and their young children for talking, fun, creativity, relaxation
and mentoring.
-
Though MOPS is not a bible study, sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ
through life-style evangelism is a priority in everything we do.
