Diocese of Ely Daily Prayer Diary.
Remembering MOTHERS’ UNION today in this Diocese and Worldwide.
Particularly appropriate on this day as we gather at St Paul’s London for our special Celebratory Service.
Today we pray for the Benefice of Cambridge Holy Cross. We pray for its Clergy: The Revd Danny Driver and for the life of the church, and the parishes it serves. We pray for the work of the Mothers’ Union in the diocese and across the world; and from the Anglican Communion Cycle of Prayer: The Diocese of Afikpo - The Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion).

“Father God, we join in and celebrate your love to us through Mothers’ Union. We praise you for the past 150 years, for the vision of Mary Sumner and for all who have followed her, praying and serving in Your name. We delight in all Your gifts to us, the joy of family, the wonders of Your creation, the fellowship of our fellow members and, most of all, Your love to us through the gift of Your son, Jesus Christ. May we always walk in Your footsteps. Give us the strength to be different, to stand up for justice and peace, and be a sign of Your reconciling love for all. We ask this in your name. Amen.”
