Mothers' Union
The Mothers' Union is an International Christian charity that seeks to support families worldwide. The MU has members in 83 countries of the world and they all share one heartfelt vision - to bring about a world where God's love is shown through loving, respectful and flourishing relationships. MU members, including those here at St. Benedict's, actively pursue this goal through prayer, events and activities, and involvement with the local community.
The St. Benedict's Mothers' Union group meets every 1st and 3rd Monday at 10am. It has a varied programme of activities planned for 2012.
