The Ellington MOPS and Moms NEXT is having a packing party Wednesday November 19th 9:30-11:30 at the Ellington Wesleyan Church at 276 Crystal Lake Road for Operation Christmas Child. You chose a boy/girl from ages 2-14 and get presents to fill a shoebox then come join us for a fun morning of packing. Coffee and snacks will be on hand and children are welcome. You can also drop off a shoebox already packed with presents by November20th. There is a suggested donation of $7 for shipping but don’t let that stop you from coming or offering what you can. Go to Samaritanspurse.org for more information on this wonderful charity and how it benefits children from around the world.
Ellington MOPS and Moms NEXT is a group led by moms and designed to support mothers of children ages 0-high school. This year’s theme is “Be You Bravely”. We have meetings on the second Wednesday of each month from 9:15-11:15. Breakfast and daycare is included along with the opportunity to make new friends. We also have a playdate on the fourth Wednesday of each month. The locations are announced each month. Go to www.facebook.com/EllingtonMops for updates and reminders about our events including a monthly Mom’s Night Out.
