Fargo Mom

Olivet MomCo Meetup
2026-02-19 09:00 - 11:00 (America/Chicago) | Olivet Lutheran Church
We are a community of moms supporting one another through the beautiful, and often challenging journey of motherhood. Our group provides regular gatherings where moms can build meaningful friendships, grow spiritually, and find encouragement and practical help. Come join us for one of our regular bi-weekly meetups at Olivet MomCo!
A typical meetup consists of brunch and fellowship, followed by a planned activity, speaker, or video in connection to our theme for each meeting with a prayer and devotional related to our theme for that week. More details about the theme and activity for each week will be shared on our public Facebook Page, Olivet MOPS Fargo prior to each meeting. Childcare is available during meetings for birth through preschool age where the kids can enjoy playing with friends, have a snack, and participate in coloring or a craft activity while mom gets to build connections with fellow moms. Outside of our regular meetups during the school year, we also host monthly play dates and moms night out activities year round. Come check us out! We would love to meet you!
