Mothers Union

At St Michael’s we have an active Mothers Union branch with a varied and interesting programme. We meet once a month.

Any baptised person can join the MU and we welcome visitors of all ages, male and female to our meetings. The programme is published in the church magazine and further information can be obtained from the Branch Leader,  Richard Horrell tel. 01436 676936, or email: rghorrell@talktalk.net.

Our Theme this year is United in Prayer. By praying and campaigning we aim to enable communities throughout the world to show God’s love with respectful and flourishing relationsips.

We have a prayer diary called Families Worldwide and a bimonthly magazine Families First. If you wish to acquire either of these publications please ask Richard Horrell.

Members of Mothers Union in the dioceses seek to advance God’s Kingdom by developing loving, respectful relationships with people of all faiths and none, irrespective of gender, marital status, ethnic origin, nationality, disability, sexual orientation or age.

As always our meetings are open to anyone who would like to come along. There is a noticeboard near the west door of St Michael and All Angels devoted to mothers union matters.
