Faith & Policy

The spiritual life of our members is an important concern

Members worldwide are united in prayer, worship and fellowship. Every day in the Wave of Prayer, members pray for their fellow members in dioceses across the globe. We provide resources for individual members, branches and dioceses on festivals, quiet days and Bible Study Courses.

The Indoor Members Prayer Circle (IMPC) is made up of members who cannot take part in MU activities for various reasons, but pray for the work of the Mothers’ Union.

In this diocese the Unit Committee :

  • helps to prepare services for special occasions such as diocesan or deanery festivals and the annual Wave of Prayer service
  • arranges an annual Quiet Afternoon.
  • prepares a list of speakers who are willing to address branches.
  • distributes the literature and information, which comes from London.
  • prepares a monthly intercession calendar for the diocesan branches.
  • arranges an Emergency Prayer Chain.
  • twins branches with other branches in the diocese so that they can pray for each other.
  • reminds members that useful material can be obtained from the MU web site, e.g. Monthly prayers, Bible Study material, etc.
  • members go to speak at branches, Quiet Afternoons etc.

One branch keeps in touch with the indoor members by sending them  letters and cards.

  • Bangor Diocese



    The diocese of Bangor covers the whole of the north-western quarter of Wales and is roughly co-terminous with the ancient kingdom of Gwynedd.

    It extends from the port of Holyhead in the north to the rural market town of Llanidloes in the south; from the holy island of Bardsey in the west to Llandudno in the east, along the North Wales coastal strip; behind which lies Snowdonia and the most mountainous areas of Wales.
