More than 750 Mothers’ Union members and friends from across Britain and Ireland attended the Annual Gathering held in Belfast over the weekend of September 23 and 24.

Events began with two Services of Celebration held in St Anne’s Cathedral on the Friday at 4.30pm and 7pm, and the conference continued the following day in the Waterfront Hall and ended that evening with a concert featuring the Clare Chorale from Ballyclare.

The Services of Celebration were led by the Bishop of Connor, the Rt Rev George Davison, and the preacher was the Rt Rev Andrew Forster, Bishop of Derry and Raphoe, who stepped in as a late replacement for the Rt Rev Dr Emma Ineson, MU Central Chaplain.

Music at the services was from the Kerygma Choir under Musical Director Lorna Palmer, and the organist was Neale Agnew.
