The Mothers' Union Prayer
Loving Lord
We thank you for your love so
freely given to us all.
We pray for families around the
world.
Bless the work of the Mothers'
Union as we seek to share
Your love through the
encouragement, strengthening and support of marriage and family life.
Empowered by your spirit, may
we be united in prayer and worship,
and in love and service reach
out as your hands across the world.
In Jesus' name. Amen

Emergency Prayer Chain (EPC)
Each branch has an appointed contact person for EPC.
Prayer concerns are relayed initially by a co-ordinator, then phoned or
Emailed down the chain by contacting 3 people, who in turn, pass the
message on to one other branch. The branches choose their own way
of praying for those concerns, either at branch meetings, prayer groups
or through a particular member. |

Holding a New Born Baby
I held a new born baby today,
Lord.
As she was placed into my arms
the years
rolled back for me - this little
replica of my own daughter.
Thank you Lord for helping my
daughter
through her labour, and for
giving us both this
perfect miracle of life to love
and cherish.

prayers, poems and reflections by Mothers' Union members in Glasgow and
