Mother's Union 
The aim of the MU is to strengthen and preserve marriage and family life through Christianity. In order to carry out this aim, our objectives are:
To uphold Christ's teaching on the nature of marriage and promote its wider understanding.
To encourage parents to bring up their children in the faith and life of the Church.
To maintain a worldwide fellowship of Christians united in prayer, worship and service.
To promote conditions in society favourable to stable family life and the protection of children.
To help those whose family life has met with adversity.
Our branch of the MU meets monthly in the afternoon, often with a guest speaker. There is a quarterly service at St Wilfrid’s. There is a small annual subscription for members.
