Welcome to

Charlton Baptist Church

Mothers of Preschoolers (MOPS)

Looking for encouragement as you raise preschoolers? Interested in exchanging ideas with other moms? Need a break from the never-ending, but fulfilling, role of mothering? Then, Charlton Baptist MOPS is for you!

The Charlton Baptist MOPS chapter was formed in the fall of 2005 to meet the needs of mothers of preschoolers in Charlton and surrounding towns like Auburn, Sturbridge and Oxford. Moms meet once a month for two hours to hear a speaker on a timely topic, complete a craft project and enjoy discussion and refreshments….all without in interruption from their infant/preschooler! Loving adults care for infant/preschoolers during the two hour meetings, filling the time with games, craft projects, music, snacks and a devotional.

The Charlton Baptist MOPS is a chartering ministry of MOPS International who “exists to encourage, equip and develop every mother of preschoolers to realize her potential as a women, mother and leader in the name of Jesus Christ.” For more info, go to www.mops.org

The Charlton Baptist MOPS chapter meets from 9 to 11 a.m. the third Friday of every month at the church, located at 50 Hammond Hill Road, Charlton. A $5 donation per meeting is requested to cover the cost of MOPPETS supplies, snacks, crafts, etc. In addition, moms must join MOPS International (annual membership $20). By joining, you get weekly encouraging emails, a bimonthly MomSense magazine, kids DVD and book.
