Recent Activities

 

These have included the Overseas Lunch at St Nicholas Church on June 22 and the Wave of Prayer on July 4 when we prayed with our Diocesan links of Canberra and Goulburn, Lake Malawi, Southern Malawi, On the Coast, Kindu, Ezo and Torit.

 

Other events in July enjoyed by several of our members were a Cream Tea provided by St Mary Cray branch and a coach outing to Losely House, Guildford, organised by St  Paul’s Crofton. Our own annual outing, on 14 July, was to Teapot Island, Yalding. After a pottery demonstration and  a visit to the teapot museum, we were treated to a tour of Yalding Church and  a welcome cup of tea by the local Mothers’ Union branch.

Mothers’ Union Prayer Group: 1980-2010

 

In August the MU Prayer Group will celebrate 30 years of its existence.  The very first meeting took place on the second Wednesday of August 1980, and it was with great trepidation that a few members met together to work at creating a short service during which we could pray for the work of the Mothers’ Union, the sick and elderly and world disasters both man-made and natural.

 

I think that we may justly feel proud that this small centre of prayer has continued so constantly throughout such a long period, and although we are few in number we hope that it may continue in the future.
