Holy Sepulchre Enrolment 

"It was my delight to attend Holy Sepulchre Branch in Ashington to enrol three new members into Mothers' Union.  Elaine King, Joanne Winn and Julie Lingham.

I read out the MU Aim and Objects and Reverend Chris Groocock formally enrolled and welcomed them.  The Branch Leader, Reverend Lorna Beadle, presented them with their membership cards , then proceeded to preside at the Eucharist which followed. I look forward to meeting up with them again at a branch meeting in the near future."
