Mother’s Union Service – Mary Sumner homily – 9th August

 

Members of the Mothers’ Union of St Andrews and Brechin Dioceses came together at St Kessog’s,  Auchterarder on August 9th  to celebrate Mary Sumner Day with a eucharist and an inspiring talk given by Rev Tracy Dowling, the rector of St Kessog’s,  followed by lunch and an opportunity to socialise.  In her homily, Tracy introduced the theme of the day ‘God’s Unruly Women’, by speaking about Mary Sumner and the Canaanite woman of Matthew 15:21–28, two women of great faith who pushed against the cultural norms of their day.
