Mothers’ Union and the Toxteth Women’s Centre
This is an appeal on behalf of the Toxteth Women’s Centre which is supported by local Mothers’ Union branches in our area/deanery. Fliss, who works with Afghan women and children who are refugees and asylum seekers in Liverpool, has asked for donations of the following items. Nappies, mainly size 4,5 and 6, maternity pads and breast pads, baby wash and shampoo, bigger items of pushchairs (baby and toddler), car seats for new-borns, baby bouncer chairs/play mats. As branch leader at our church, I thought I would share this appeal with the whole congregation. Thank you for reading this. Sue Watterson. 07707 901279
Mothers’ Union meeting on Tuesday 8th November at 2pm in the church hall.
Our speaker this month is Adeyinka Olushonde who is going to tell us about himself and his ministry and then talk about issues of prejudice, racism and slavery. This follows on from a sermon which he preached a few weeks ago on the Good Samaritan, which some of you may recall. Mother’s Union is just one of a number of organisations in the UK and globally which support the movement to stop modern day slavery.
Visitors and friends are very welcome to join us. Sue Watterson Tel: 07707 901279
Thank you for all those who have responded to the appeal to give items for the Toxteth Women’s Centre which supports Afghan refugees.
