Welcome Bags

Published: 24 September 2012

Welcome Week was a huge success for Mothers’ Union: 2,400 bags given out, with as many conversations of ‘Welcome to Manchester’ and ... How much Soup?... Numerous pans prepared and served with a smile and a welcome.

Thank you to all our members for their generosity in donating the mugs, tea coffee, sugar, cup of soup, chocolate biscuits. Thank you to all our members who volunteered and helped in any way to make the project another success for Mothers’ Union in the Diocese of Manchester.

Here is just one comment received by e mail from a student:-
Just to say thank you so much for the little hospitality bag that I received outside St Peter's House on Oxford Road today. It was so generous of you and thank you also for the warm invite to the cafe too. It was nice to meet other Christians and not to feel uncomfortable being approached. As a young new Christian in a big city it can be difficult to find your feet!
