May Moms’ Night Out

This month we took over downtown Perry together during their Food Truck Friday event. We met up at Bodega Brew, where most ladies grabbed a drink and sat down to listen to live music from Dan Peterson. Then, we grabbed some pictures before walking around so everyone could decide on dinner. We split up to grab dinners, and we met back up with all of our different food choices to sit and listen to live music from Luke Martin outside. Curious where we ate? Some food trucks that were visited were Cuban Island Cafe, Hibachi Highway, Orleans on Wheels, Tacos El Jefe Taqueria, and Salsa’s Mexican Grill. After dinner, we headed to Patio 901 and hung out until Food Truck Friday ended. We also took another picture because we were making memories y’all! A couple ladies grabbed a cupcake from Debs Curbside Cupcakes before heading home. It was a wonderful evening full of fabulous food and wonderful fellowship. We can’t wait to see what is store for June! 

We hope to see everyone at our MOPS play date next Thursday May 26th at Creekwood Park!

MOM OLYMPICS

This was our last meeting before summer break starts. We will be doing MNO and Play dates throughout the summer. So, be sure to check the private Facebook group for more info on those events. We had announcements and then showed an end of the year photo slideshow. We revealed our new leadership team. We announced the new theme and showed the theme intro video. Then, we played MOM Olympics. We had 5 games and 4 teams.  The teams were done by color: Red, Green, Yellow, and Blue! The games this year were: Midnight diaper change, Speedy toy pickup, Name that Tune, Driving Ms. Crazy, and the LEGO walk. Here are some pictures from our last Spring meeting. Enjoy!

Don’t forget we have our next Moms’ Night Out this Friday May 20th. We will be meeting up at Bodega Brew. Plus, our next play date is May 26th! We hope to see you at some or all the things. Stay in touch over the summer! 😍

CGL/ Leadership End of Year Party

Jessica hosted our beloved table leaders and the leadership team at her house. We thanked all of our wonderful table leaders for everything they did this year. Jessica prepared a delicious baked potato bar for everyone. We learned about Skyline chili and mini croutons. We had numerous delicious desserts to eat afterwards. 😋 It was a wonderful time to reflect and catch up. However, the case of the missing Roomba has yet to be solved. 🕵🏻‍♀️ We laughed a lot and cried a little. We learned we need to get better at our picture skills… but enjoy these anyway. 🤪😜 Thanks to Mrs. Roberta for trying to capture us anyway! 🤩

 

 

 Lastly, we hope you'll join us May 11th for even more fun and fellowship as we compete in MOM Olympics and have our LAST meeting of the semester. Feel free to invite a friend along, or come and make some new ones. We will be announcing our new Leadership Team along with the new MOPS theme for 2022-2023! 🤩

 

 

Mother’s Day Brunch 🌼

This meeting was a little different. It was laid back and not as structured. We celebrated Mother’s Day early. We had open seating and enjoyed eating food and having time to fellowship. Each table represented a different place you could “visit”. There was an information card about how you can pray for MOPS mommas in each of those places. 🗺

Did you know MOPS is international? There are at least 68 countries that have a MOPS group! 🤩

#FastFacts

In the 2019-2020 MOPS year, there were:

• 2918 Classic US MOPS groups
• 49 Teen MOPS groups 
• 42 Military MOPS groups 
• 462 global MOPS groups
• 828 MOMSnext groups
• 462 Spanish Groups
• 1 Prison Group

And most importantly, over 7800 women came to faith in Jesus. 😍

We hope you have felt loved and supported this year. We hope you had found people who are starting to feel like family. People you can laugh with, who push you to be better, who cry with you, who listen, who are there through it all. We hope you know you are never alone. 💞

We pray, most importantly, you know just how loved you are by the One who created you. ✝️

“For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” -Romans 8:38-39

It’s Strawberry Season 🍓

This morning we held our monthly MOPS play date. 🌼

It was a beautiful morning filled with sunny skies ☀️, beautiful berries 🍓, children playing 🛝, and mommas having sweet fellowship ☕️. We also got to enjoy an airplane ✈️ flying overhead multiple times and some kiddos even walked over to see the pond 🎣. There was ice cream 🍨 , cobbler 🍑 , cookies 🍪 , and some even had lunch 🍱 . It was so nice catching up with mommas and seeing all the kids having fun. 🥰 We hope you will join us next month at Creekwood Park in Perry. 🤩

Thanks to Rosa for letting us share some of her pictures from today!
