The Reverend Ben Bradshaw, Chaplain to the Bishop of Sodor and Man, is announced as the new Chaplain to the Diocesan Mothers’ Union.

Danni Bradshaw – MU Secretary
Ben Bradshaw – MU Chaplain
Gail Eagles – MU President
As father of a young family, he shares the commitment to the Christian sustaining of family life which is the defining characteristic of the Mothers’ Union. His will be a ministry of prayerfulness, strengthened by the love of the Gospel and a profound respect for every human being made in the likeness of God.
Ben will serve in this role for a period of three years, until 31 January 2022. He follows Nigel Cretney, Diocesan Chaplain for the past Triennium, and I take this opportunity to thank Nigel most warmly for his ministry of care and support to the Mothers’ Union.
I ask us to hold the work and witness of the Mothers’ Union in loving prayer as it begins this new chapter in its life.
