“Co” in The MomCo is always short for Community.
Due to trademark limitations, we must stick with “MomCo” when referring to the brand.
The word “company” began as description for a “large group of people” and over time morphed into our modern concept that offers “company” as an employer. We reclaim the early French word “compagnie” which is defined as “society, friendship, intimacy” which is interchangeable with community. The central focus of MOPS has always been to create a mom community that provides opportunities to encounter Jesus. We began as the pioneering mom community with this mission, the first of its kind.
MOPS groups will transition to The MomCo Meetups by the Fall 2024.
As we have done with the MOPS name, we ask that all MOPS groups use The MomCo brand name in your own meetup name. We want your name to represent the uniqueness of your community, so we only offer suggestions for how to best name your meetup. ex: The MomCo of Cookeville, MomCo of Cookeville, or Cookeville MomCo
We are asking all MOPS Groups to transition to The MomCo brand name no later than Fall 2024.
Thank you for joining the The MomCo! We are excited to walk alongside you during this transition. We will be by your side every step of the way! We will offer a series of webinars and open forums over the coming months to help resource all of our leaders for these changes. If you are a coordinator, please reach out to your cohort leader for any questions. If you are a church, leader or mom, please connect with us at service@themom.co.
Yes, we will be sunsetting the term “MOMSnext” in the future. The new name was carefully chosen to be inclusive of all moms. We recognize that we had outgrown our name and were unintentionally excluding moms with the term “mothers of preschoolers”. We offer belonging for all moms. We serve pregnant moms through moms of school-aged kids, but now under one name.
These trademarked names are still held by The MomCo.
The MomCo name and brand is designed with every country in mind. The only change for our Global moms is that if you live in the United Kingdom, Australia or selected countries in Africa, the name is The MumCo
The short answer, both. Treat “MomCo” as a noun that can stand alone with “the” in many cases. However, if you do have a “the” proceeding “MomCo,” capitalize the “the.” Both versions are trademarked and so either is acceptable. You will see logos and products using both versions.
The term “MOMSnext” will be sunset in the next few years. As groups consider naming their MomCo Meetups, we encourage leaders to update their affinities and group descriptions to highlight the demographics their meetups serve. We recognize that some groups meet together as MOPS & MOMSnext, while other groups meet separately. Either option is still available. Please determine what best serves your community. We encourage leaders to consider adding additional groups to broaden the audiences they serve. Starting in April of 2023, any group leader can add a group to their church (or host organization) for free inside Group Management. We would encourage Cohort Leaders to demonstrate the ability to add groups for free and to edit their groups affinities and descriptions.
The proper designation in the new naming convention is “meetup,” you’ll see HQ begin to migrate all uses of “group” to “meetup.”
We suggest leaders begin planning their rebrand in February, this will allow ample time to launch pre-registration for the upcoming year under the new brand.
Your MomCo Meetup is a ministry of your church and as such, the church is the best resource to determine what steps are necessary to change the name from a marketing, financial, and business registration perspective. The regulations and processes differ from state to state and we encourage you to connect with local resources as your church advises.
