Hey ladies, I'm getting some MOPS things ready for Friday and thinking about registration for next semester. Don't forget to bring your $45 check and reserve your spot! --- Karly

If you have won the "Freshest Idea" award and want to post your recipe on the MOPS website for all of to use. Please send recipes to vanessabeckett@yahoo.com. Thank you.

11/18/11 is our group's Operation Christmas Child Packing Party after MOPS and the last day to collect for OCC. There also will be a lunch for children during the packing party.

A heavy topic on 11/4 but an awesome service opportunity. Here is Breaking Free's website: breakingfree.net. If you want to donate more supplies for the women, Katie will provide a box to put your donations in at the upcoming MOPS meetings. Thanks Katie!

Just a reminder that our MOPS Fun N' Run is coming up this Friday from 9:15-11:15 in the church gym. We will return to our regular Friday MOPS meeting on October 7th. Along with an open gym time for the kids this week, we'll also be doing "paint your plate" for anyone whose interested. The prices this year are as follows: Plates: $7, Bowls: $9, Trays: $12. We should have them back for the first November meeting.

Priority registration is now closed for current MOPS moms. Registration opens tomorrow for non-current MOPS moms. Contact Kristina Milinkovich at 952-250-0776 or kmilinkovich@hotmail.com if you would like to return or have a friend interested in joining our MOPS group.

It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!!
