MOPS San Marcos

It's almost here! The first meeting of the year is Tuesday, September 4th. Our meetings are always at the First Baptist Church in San Marcos , upstairs in the Youth room. (Go up the stairs take a left and go all the way down the hall.) For our kick-off meeting, our speaker will be Pediatrician, Dr. Flinn. We are so excited to hear some of the pointers she will give us as to how to keep our little ones healthy this year. If you haven't been to a meeting we are super casual! What do we do at MOPS? We serve dinner, eat, listen to a speaker for twenty minutes or so, and just mingle with the Mommas. Just a little time to refresh and hang out with other ladies. Who doesn't need that kind of night out? Your first meeting is free! Even if you need child care! Child care is FREE. Please RSVP here  or email us at mops@sanmarcosfbc.org if you need child care (Name and age of children). Everyone is welcome! You do not have to be a member of FBC to participate in MOPS San Marcos

As a community organization, we never want the cost of MOPS to be prohibitive to moms attending. If this is a concern for you or someone you may know, please contact Chelsie at mops.sanmarcos@gmail.com . We have a limited number of scholarships available and will do everything we can to try and help.

Are you interested in doing something helpful for the community? Join us in our Fall Community Service Project as we make dinner for the Hays Caldwell Women's Shelter! What do you need to do? Prepare your choice of a main dish, side OR dessert in a disposable container. A representative from MOPS will meet in a central location (TBA) to pick up all food and drop off at the Women's Shelter. This is a wonderful treat for the ladies and thier children after their group meetings. There are between 30-35 ladies and children. Let us know if this is something you want to be involved with!

Escape the craziness of back to school with some girl time! Join us on September 13th at The Railyard Bar & Grill at 7pm. Come hang out with the ladies and enjoy a hot meal all to yourself!  Click here to RSVP.
