During most MOPS meetings, children in kindergarten and younger are cared for in a program called MOPPETS where they experience love in a preschool-like setting.
Infants must be at least six weeks of age before being accepted into the MOPPETS program. Children through kindergarten age will be accepted into the MOPPETS program, but older children will not.
MOPPETS program reservations are required. To reserve your child's spot, please call the Church Receptionist at (210) 733-7156 by noon Thursday before a Saturday morning meeting.
