The Mary Sumner Prayer
Written in 1876 by Mothers' Union founder, Mary Sumner
All this
day, O Lord,
let me touch as many lives as possible for thee;
and every life I touch,
do thou by thy spirit quicken,
whether through the word I speak,
the prayer I breathe,
or
the life I live.
Amen
Mothers’ Union expresses its Christian identity through its life of prayer and worship. It is this spiritual life together which underpins our work with families and communities. Every day a wave of prayer goes around the world as members stop and pray in the middle of the day to pray for the work of Mothers’ Union and international issues. These daily prayers follow an annual pattern which means that every Mothers’ Union region is prayed for at least once during the year.

We never underestimate the power of prayer!
Through the development of faith, we deepen our relationship with God and with each other, articulating and translating our faith into action. Our faith runs like a river through all our activities.
