MACC Outreach Opportunity
MOPs (Mother’s of Preschoolers ) is a MACC Outreach Ministry meeting every other week at our Warehouse offices to give young mothers a chance to meet, have coffee, hear a speaker, make a craft and just have some time to relax and be without their little ones. Because of the large number of children, there is a need for many volunteers. Would you consider helping one time a month, one time a season, or just one time? In preparation of this year we are asking if you might also consider donating any of the following items needed: boxes of tissues, hand soap, miniature size paper cups, Clorox wipes, baby wipes, books, new or gently used toys such as farmland and animals, doll houses with little people and plastic toys not needing batteries. Donations will be accepted at the Warehouse or on Sunday mornings. If you’d like to join the fun every other Friday, please contact Melody Genzel at m_genzel@hotmail.com or 520-280-3545. Thank you for your support of this growing ministry.
MOPPETs Volunteer Kick-off Meeting
Our first MOPPETs Volunteer Kick-Off meeting is set for learning MOPPETs responsibilities, eating homemade snacks and crafting a special gift! This is an event made especially for you. Whether you commit to helping out once a year or every meeting, come and enjoy. Special guest speakers include Gayle Murray, Jeanne Padgett, Patty Brown, and more! We will meet at the Warehouse at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, August 15. Let’s connect in this very unique service to our community and see what God does to bless us and the children again this year!! Bring your calendars. No childcare provided.
