The MomCo
Of Alexandria Free Methodist Church

MomCo is a non-profit organization that encourages and equips moms of young children to realize their potential as mothers, women and leaders, in relationship with Jesus and in partnership with the local church.

 MomCo — then, simply known as MOPS (Mothers of Preschoolers) — was founded in 1973 when seven women in Colorado invited moms to meet regularly to grow together as women, parents and leaders, with the ultimate goal of reaching women with the hope of Jesus.

 Today, the small gathering they called MOPS now extends to 110+ countries, 30 languages, and 82,000+ meetings a year, influencing over 3 million moms annually.

As the Alexandria Free Methodist MomCo Meet Up we strive to provide a place for mothers to find a place of belonging and realize their potential as mothers and women by networking with each other and growing in their knowledge of who God created them to be.
