Mothers’ Union Diocesan Cope
Bishop Bob had been presented with this cope by members of the Mothers’ Union in the Dioceses of Mthatha in South Africa on his visit last year. He has given it to the Mothers’ Union chaplain Reverend Canon Graham Taylor for use at his collation as Rector at St. Clement’s, Aberdeen (see the cover of the Diocesan Newsletter available on the diocesan page).
The photograph above shows the beautiful detail on the collar. One can just about imagine the love and skill that went into the embroidery.
Trish Heywood in the Diocese
Trish's (MU Worldwide President at the time) visit to Aberdeen & Orkney was a happy occasion full of events which enabled many beyond our membership to glimpse the scope of the Mothers' Union work and the enthusiastic way that Trish gives love and support to the millions she has visited around the world and here in her home country.
It was a delight to have her amongst us at formal and social events. Here the delight is on her face on being given a beautiful sheepskin rug, produced by Theresa, a Diocesan member from Orkney.
