Mothers Union newsletter

MONTHLY E-NEWSLETTER July 2014

We are back! After an unintentional month off from the newsletter here is all the latest news from Mothers' Union. The reason for our break was very much due to the huge workload we had whilst putting together and running this years' General Meeting. It was worth it though; the sun shone down on us in Belfast as we shared fellowship and worship together whilst discovering more about the work of Mothers' Union. This month's downloadable article gives a great overview of the meeting and don't forget whether you attended or not we are interested in your feedback for our 2014 General Meeting Survey Although I seem to write this every month July is looking very busy for us; this year's Wheels Appeal is now in full force, we are preparing for members week,  working on resources for next year's theme and lets not forget, staff are also hard at work training for the Richmond Park Run - why don't you dust of the cobwebs on your trainers and come and join us? Kind Regards Rachael Arding Newsletter Editor
