Our MOPS group is a dynamic, inviting environment where moms can come just as they are to build friendships, be encouraged, and gain practical parenting strategies. All while their children are lovingly cared for in the MOPPETS program.

Call to Action!

In light of yesterday's meeting on LOVERS AND GIVERS, here are some ways to put that into action during this holiday season!  Thank you Cindie Butts for this great information!!

OPERATION CHRISTMAS CHILD

Here is the link to the info on how to pack an Operations Christmas Child shoe box.

The collection is this week from Nov. 16-23rd and these are our local collection sites:

Woodlands Lutheran Church
15333 C.R. 455
Montverde FL 34756

YMCA Roper Center
100 Windermere Rd
Winter GardenFL 34787

First Baptist Church
1000 E 1st Ave
Mount Dora FL 32757

Trinity Chapel
1951 Dora Ave
TavaresFL 32778

Cindie would be willing to deliver them to one of the locations on Monday if any of the moms can get some boxes together. We would just need to figure out how she can get them from you. Unfortunately there isn't a processing center around here so we can't really go and volunteer.  Renee Tindol has also offered to  do another drop this coming Monday since she will be working in Orlando .She would need to pick up the boxes by this Sunday afternoon.  You can email questions for Cindie or Renee to the MOPS email address!
