OUR EVENTS

The Union of Catholic Mothers (UCM) is a national organisation open to all Catholic women, married or not married ,whose members meet regularly in their parish Foundations to support Parish Activities, organise social activities and offer support to one another and those in need.

​

The Objectives are:

1. To help Catholic women to appreciate the Sacramental character, responsibilities and permanence of marriage and to live in unselfish love observing the laws of God and his Church.

2. To assist families to bring up their children as practising Catholics and public – spirited citizens

3. To teach and defend Christian values in family life and to ensure Catholic education for future generations

4. To offer love, sympathy and practical help to those in difficulty.

5. To foster vocations in life especially in Christian Marriage and Family Life and in the Priesthood and Religious Life

​

We are fortunate to have a happy, active Foundation in this Parish, who meet in Minster Church after the 7pm Mass on the first and third Tuesdays of each month.

​

So far this year our activities include:

• two study and reflection sessions discussing Pope Francis’ Encyclical Fratelli Tutti

• a very enjoyable Easter Celebration

• arranging the very successful Barn Dance on 26 th April
