Meet the MOPS Coordinators!

Anne and Beth




This is Beth's 2nd year as the 1/3 MOPS Coordinator.  

1. How many years have you been in MOPS?
I have been in MOPS for 5 years.

2. What are the ages of your children? I have two children--5 and 2

3. Where did you and your husband go on your first date?
On our first date we went to Sgt Peffer's Pizza and Italian
Restaurant and then we went to see the movie Luther.

4. What was the best birthday/Christmas present you ever received?
The best birthday or Christmas gift I have ever received was a trip to Chicago with my husband.  My mom came and watched the kids while we were able to get away and have some down time.

5. What did you get in trouble for the most when you were a kid?
When I was little I used to always hide on my mom when we were at the store.  She would obviously freak out because she could not find my brother and I. When we saw her get worked up and a little frightened we would jump out of the clothes rack or wherever we were hiding and say, "HERE WE ARE MOM!" When I think back to those times now I laugh and think about how angry I would be if my kids did the same thing to me.  What a scary situation to put my mom through.

6. Why do you love MOPS?
I love MOPS because through MOPS I have grown closer to the Lord!  I have made some amazing life long friends. It is a place where I can come; be real and share about my struggles and have a community that knows exactly what I am going through because we are all in the same stage of life. MOPS refreshes me, challenges me and encourages me to continually press on even when life is difficult.




This is Anne's first year as the 2/4 MOPS Coordinator. 

1. How many years have you been in MOPS? This is my 6th year!

2. What are the ages of your children? Chloe-6, Brodie-3 & Abi-1

3. Where did you and your husband go on your first date? Trivato's, in Dundee. It's no longer around.

4. Would you consider yourself an introvert or extrovert? I would say I am  a little of both, but probably more extroverted.

5. What is your love language? Quality time

6. Why do you love MOPS? Because it is a place to let your hair down as a mom, rub shoulders with other moms going through the same life experiences and challenges, get a break and be encouraged that what I am doing everyday matters!
