LEEK TEAM MOTHER'S UNION
Team Mothers
Union every 3rd Monday of the month Club at
St. Luke’s
The Leek Team branch of the Mothers' Union began over 15
years ago. The aim was to provide an opportunity for ladies who worked
during the daytime to meet during the evening. Originally the branch met
in the home of one of our members.
In more recent years, the branch has been meeting at St
Luke's Church on the third Monday in each month, starting at 7.45 pm.
There is a varied programme throughout the year of Bible study, visiting
speakers, and craft evenings, all of which follow the theme set by Mary
Sumner House.
All members of the Mothers' Union, male or female, are
welcome from within the Leek & Meerbrook Team and we are always happy to
welcome new faces.
If you would like to know more about the work of the
Mothers' Union, or would like to come along and join in one of our
meetings, please contact the Leek Team Branch Leader, Ann Alexander on
01538-382368 or e-mail ann.alexander@voisd.com

Our bereavement support group was set up some years ago, with a view to
giving pastoral support to bereaved families. We are not counsellors, our aim is
to befriend a grieving person, by offering support and being along side them in
their pain and to be sensitive to their needs. Maybe they just want someone to
sit and listen as they unburden themselves. (In listening the bereavement
visitor can pick up how the grieving person is coping and if more professional
counselling is needed.)
Twice a year a special memorial service is held for those who have lost a
loved one in the previous 6 months.
On the first anniversary of the death a prayer card is sent to the bereaved
family, to show we have not forgotten them and they will be mentioned in our
prayers during that week.
We find our pastoral services given to the bereaved is very much appreciated.
