Mothering is an adventure to be sure – from baby’s first kisses and cute messy faces to trips to the playground and pushing a grocery cart with a screaming toddler, a mom’s life is full of adventures with her children. But it’s not only about the kids. Mothering is also an adventure in personal growth for every woman who undertakes this important role.

Maybe life as a mom feels like a merry-go-round as you go round and round and up and down–but don’t seem to get anywhere. Or perhaps you are riding the bumper cars of the relationship part of your adventure in mothering. The theme verse for Adventures in Mothering is Ephesians 3:18: “…how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ.” This verse expresses how God is with us in our mothering adventure.

MOPs is a great place to share your adventures, make friends, have fun, and grow as a mother and a woman. So, come, join us, we've got a seat just for you!
