The Mothers’ Union is a worldwide organisation with the prime concern of Christian care for families. It caters for men and women of all ages - anyone who is baptised and supports its aims can join.
The organisation was founded over 130 years ago by Mary Sumner, who recognised a need to support new mothers. Today there are 3.6 million members in 79 countries – working in many different ways to meet the needs of families in their own time and place. Much more information is available at www.themothersunion.org
Here in Manchester there are approximately 2700 members. We meet, worship together and work, mainly in our own parishes, to support the clergy in their mission to the church and community, with particular emphasis on the family (in its many forms). There is also the opportunity to join as a member in the diocese, supporting the work financially, through several projects but, above all, through prayer.
