New Website for Derry & Raphoe Mothers' Union
The Mothers Union in Derry and Raphoe Diocese has a new website, designed by Joy Harron from Donegal, as the latest means of communicating with its members. The leadership of the Mothers’ Union also see this as a shop window for the work of their organisation.
Bishop Ken Good, along with Mrs Margaret Crawford (All Ireland President) officially launched the website at the Diocesan Office on Monday, 1 October.
The Bishop said: "The success of the Mothers' Union in our diocese owes much to the commitment and hard work of its leaders and its members. I am delighted to launch this new resource for the Mothers' Union in Derry and Raphoe diocese. It is a sign that the Mothers' Union believes it has a relevant and positive message, and that it wants to communicate this by use of the most up-to-date means. This is a great 'first call' for anyone who wants to find out more about what the Mothers' Union does."
