MomCo

The MomCo (previously MOPS) 2026-2027 theme:

Good Company

We saved you a seat!

You know that feeling of I don’t belong here? The quiet middle-school cafeteria panic of not knowing where to sit. It’s funny how we grow up on paper — jobs, kids, bills, calendars, but we still walk into a room feeling the same way. We wonder: Is it just me? Am I the only one who’s lonely? Somewhere between cafeterias and carpool lines, we acquired 1224 friends on Instagram, but not one person we’d feel comfortable calling in a crisis. We got busy, started using ChatGPT as our therapist, and now we spend more time analyzing our lives than living them. We’re great at managing schedules and terrible at saying, “Want to come over?” Maybe it’s because we’ve spent the last few years optimizing our mornings, workouts and wardrobes into a boring beige minimalism. The result? We’re burnt out, lonely and tired of feeling overwhelmed. It’s time to slow things down. Less maximizing every minute, more backyard hangs. More remembering who we are when we’re not doing it all alone. We’re longing for more life and real community. Into that ache, Jesus speaks with surprising clarity: “I have called you friends.” And then he hands us to each other. This year at MomCo, we’re going back to something wildly simple: We’re bringing back analog friendship. It’s time to be known again. And so, how about we not play it cool? Let’s bring back earnestness.
