I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas. I look forward to seeing you at our next MOPS meeting in January!

Next MOPS Meeting - December 13

Our next meeting is this upcoming Tuesday, December 13th, at 9:30 a.m.

The Steering Team will be providing appetizers and desserts to enjoy while we make a craft and exchange our cookies.

Don't forget to bring your cookies for the Cookie Exchange! (One dozen) We will provide boxes for you to bring your cookies home. If you have a cookie catastrophe or can't find time to bake, feel free to pick up your favorite store-bought cookies.

If you haven't finished your Christmas shopping, make sure to bring some cash for the Express-O boutique and our raffle.  Express-O boutique will feature various handmade items from different countries that FCC has ministries in. Our raffle this week is a wonderful tray complete with hot cocoa mixes and mugs which would make a great gift!

I'd also like to encourage you to bring something for the Moppets workers to show appreciation for the wonderful care they provide our children. Just some extra cookies or a card would make them feel special. We couldn't do MOPS without them!

Here is the list of the workers in each room:

• Bunnies (under 1): Holly P., Sarah M., Marge F., Dolly W.
• Turtles (12-18mos): Rebecca M., Michaela H.
• Caterpillars (18-24mos): Dorianne D., Sami W., Anna L.
• Ladybugs (2): Dana B., Amy C., Rebekah L.
• Kangaroos (3): Robbyn S., Gabe H.
• Eagles (4+): Tammi B., Cami L.  

Looking forward to seeing you this Tuesday!
