What is a MOPS Group?

A MOPS group is chartered through Solid Ground International MOPS Christian Ministries. You can find us at 1208 S. 7th Street (across Save-a- Lot) in Harlingen, Texas. The MOPS program is built on several foundational principles:
Community: MOPS provides an open, caring, and accepting atmosphere where women can come together to share this important season of life.

• Mentoring: Mature women listen, encourage, and offer information and perspectives gained through experience.
  
• Practical Instruction: Teaching focuses on areas of common interest, offering inspiration and information that is relevant to the life of a mother.
• Leadership Development: MOPS groups are organized and run by mothers. Women who are involved in MOPS gain confidence in their leadership skills through the training and experience they receive from MOPS.

• Discussion: The intimate and accepting atmosphere of a small group offers moms a chance to share their successes, failures, questions, and concerns. It is during these times that a mom realizes that she is not alone, and lifelong friendships are formed.
• Teaching: Topics presented at MOPS meetings celebrate motherhood and meet a mom's unique needs during each season of life from infancy throughout  high school.
• Creative Activities: Through creative projects and presentations, women are encouraged to experience the sense of accomplishment that comes with trying and finishing new things.
• MOPPETS: During most MOPS  meetings who have pre-school children are cared for in a program called MOPPETS, where they experience love in a preschool-like setting.
