Our MOPS breakfast this morning was a big hit!  Not only did people enjoy the breakfast, we were able to raise $387.50 to donate to the Harrington House!  One woman even wrote a $50 check.  🙂

Special thanks to those moms who donated their time today (and after Saturday’s mass) to speak, cook, socialize, serve, etc. for this event!  It was a success & was a lot of fun to have a time to catch up with MOPS mom’s outside of our regular meetings.  And one last thank you goes out to Denisse & Kari for undertaking this major event & pulling it off in stellar fashion.  You guys are amazing!!  We were asked to “do this more often” by one parishioner that attended the breakfast.

The event was not only a success for Harrington House, but it was a success as far as getting MOPS’ name out there to the parish.  We got ourselves 2 new MOPPET caregivers, 2 sub caregivers, & 1 that is mulling over the possibility of being  a MOPPETS caregiver!!  We also spoke to a few mom’s that may join our group next year.

The other thing that began today was the Activity bags in the Cry Room!  They were a hit (at least with my kids!).  Thanks goes out to Kari (great idea!!), Sandy, Stephanie, Katie & Mary for taking on this project.  The bags are great & are sure to become a staple at MQP for the kids!
