The MU Theme for our Daily prayers in in August is ‘Mary Sumner Day’
Monthly Prayer.
Loving Lord, we give you thanks for the vision
of our Founder as we celebrate her special day this month.
(9th August) Prayer is the foundation of Mothers’ Union
and we pray for confidence and faithfulness to build
on Mary Sumner’s legacy and all that has been achieved so far.
As we support one another through prayer, may we touch many lives for God
through our prayer, our words and our actions. Amen
What’s on in August
6th Wednesday 10.30am Cathedral Prayers lead by Southampton Deanery

9th Saturday Mary Sumner Day Service – 2pm St Mary’s Church, Old Alresford followed by Tea in Christie Hall
What do we do?
MU supports families and communities in need of support in the UK and across the world, with members working tirelessly to serve their communities whilst offering Christian care for families, regardless of faith or background, working to end violence, end poverty and end injustice.
The Worldwide Headquarters is based at Mary Sumner House in London. They live stream Mid-Day Prayers on Facebook – an opportunity for everyone to be part of the on-going cycle of Prayer which is part and parcel of the Mothers’ Union way of life.
