Membership

Branch Members

The first branch of the Mothers' Union in Wales was formed in our diocese at Llandrindod Wells, in 1884, and there are now 45 branches with about 1300 members.

Indoor members

These are members who can no longer attend branch meetings because they are housebound through age, illness or because they are carers. These Members receive Christmas and Easter Greetings and the Diocesan Newsletter. They provide prayerful support for the ongoing work of MU in the diocese.

Diocesan members

Diocesan Members may be people who do not wish to (or are unable to) be part of a group and attend meetings but who would like to support the work of Mothers' Union.

How can I become a Diocesan member?

You need to complete an application form which is returned to the Diocesan membership representative with a subscription fee.

What do I get?

You will receive regular mailings, which include:

• MU Newsletter, with information and news of what's happening in Swansea and Brecon
• Families Worldwide, with topical information for members, including the daily prayer cycle and as well as updates on our work worldwide.
• Promotional material
• Invitations to MU events in Swansea and Brecon

Diocesan members host the Monthly Eucharist Services once or twice a year, by reading the lessons and intercessions. Social gatherings will be held specifically for Diocesan Members.

What can I give?

As a Diocesan Member, you may:

• Support the various projects that we run both locally and overseas.
