MOTHERS’ DAY OUT

Since 1989, LPPC has sponsored “Mother’s Day Out” or MDO, a special place for your child to play and meet other children from the greater Placitas area. MDO, a cooperative (“co-op”) child-care program, is a non-denominational, outreach program established at LPPC .


The primary mission of the MDO program is to provide children with a safe and loving environment in which to learn to play with one another, to share, and to have fun! MDO provides one full-time care giver, with parents volunteering on a rotating basis so there are always two adults supervising the children. Each parent is responsible for participating in the on-going fundraising activities associated with the program.

Some activities offered in this mixed-age classes include: puzzles, play dough, coloring, games, music, books, short field trips, guest speakers and presentations. The LPPC Church grounds provide a beautiful setting for walks and secure outdoor playground area.
