The Mothers Union is a Christian organisation within the Church of England which works to support and encourage marriage and stable family life. There are c4 million members in 83 countries.

The Mothers’ Union in Southam is a parish-based group who usually meet on the second Thursday of each month to pray, volunteer, fundraise and campaign on a variety of family-based issues. The group’s aim is to keep expanding membership and hold more evening meetings to involve those who are not able to attend in an afternoon to join in. More information of what is happening across the Coventry Diocese can be found on the Mothers’ Union Coventry Diocese website.

It is always particularly pleasing to welcome new members as it gives an indication that Mothers’ Union is still a lively growing organisation that has much to offer. You do not have to be a mother to join and gentlemen are welcomed. Equally, if you wish to just support a project we will be pleased to hear from you.

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

Sadly we can’t provide a full English at Breakfast Church, but a very tasty Continental breakfast is enjoyed with fresh coffee or tea or juice. Whether you want to bring a newspaper to read or chat with new and old friends, Breakfast Church at St James is a great start to the day. It usually happens on 5th Sundays, but sometimes we have Breakfast Church for Baptisms as we find them a really fun, family friendly time for both frequent and less frequent visitors :)
There’s no charge but donations are always welcome :)
