The Mothers’ Union is a worldwide organisation of over 3 million members in 71 countries whose purpose is to be specifically concerned with all that strengthens and preserves Marriage and Christian Family Life. Membership is open to ANYONE, irrespective of sex, age or marital status, who is baptised in the name of the Holy Trinity and who supports the Aims and Objects of the M.U..
The M.U. supports projects both Overseas and in the UK.. In St. Alban's Diocese, members are actively involved in Contact Centres, the two prisons in the Diocese, the Women’s Refuge, the Mother and Baby Home at Bedford, and the Manor Farm Family Centre in Sandy, all run by Christian Family Care. In support of local hospitals, members make quilts, bonnets and special clothes for the premature baby units, ‘Cheer Up’ bags for children unable to get out of bed, and emergency wash bags for other wards. Thanks to member’s generosity, holidays are provided for people who need to have a break but do not have the finances.
Potton branch meet twice a month; on the second Thursday afternoon, in a members home, and on the third Monday evening starting at 8.00p.m., in the Church Hall. Our programme includes speakers or discussions on current issues.
