Introduction
The Mothers’ Union (MU) is a world wide Christian organisation
whose aim is specially concerned with all that strengthens and
preserves marriage and Christian family life. In order to carry
out its aim, the MU objectives are:
- To uphold Christ’s teaching on the nature of marriage and promote its
wider understanding.
- To encourage parents to bring up their children in the faith and life of the
church.
- To maintain a world wide fellowship of Christians, united in prayer,
worship and service.
- To promote conditions in society favourable to stable family life and the
protection of children.
- To help those whose family life has met with adversity.
The MU is as relevant today as it was to Mary Sumner, its founder, in
1876. Around the world 3.6 million members in 76 countries are
seeking to improve lives through the transforming love of Jesus Christ.
