The Mothers Union focus is on promoting family values and
marriage whilst sharing love and fellowship with others.
We believe in transforming communities from the inside and want
our members and communities to be the voice of Christ socially and
to fight for the future of families.
Mission Statement:
The Mothers
Union is a Christian organisation which promotes the well-being
of families worldwide. We achieve this by:
|
|
Developing prayer and spiritual growth in families
|
|
|
Studying and reflecting on family life and marriage
and its place in society |
|
|
Resourcing our members to take practical action
to improve conditions for families, nationally and in the
communities in which they live. |
We welcome newcomers of all ages in Helmdon &
Syresham! For further information please contact Audrey Beattie (01295) 768161.
