Penkridge Mothers' Union

MU Badgespace The Mothers' Union is a world-wide Anglican organisation concerned with all aspects of Christian family life. It is a praying, teaching and caring society. You don't have to be a mother to join us, or even a woman. Many men are now members of the MU.

Penkridge branch meets on the third Wednesday of each month at 2.15 pm in St. Michael's Church. We begin our meetings with a time of worship, followed by a speaker and the meeting ends with refreshments. Visitors are always welcome to our meetings. You are warmly invited to come and find out more about us.

On March 25th 2006 we celebrated our 120th birthday with an evening of fun and food in the Peace Memorial Hall.
