Newsletters, notices of meetings and events

Newsletter and related ephemera produced by Alan Cock for people who were members of MUEU between 1945 and 1950.

The series consists of Mary Andrews' copies of newsletters received from former students and other Christian contacts of Mary Andrews. The letters from those in missionary work, parish appointments mainly within Australia, and in other Christian work particularly in Asia. Most letters are from individuals some are from organisations.
The series has been retained to indicate the wide influence of graduates of Deaconess House as they took on positions throughout the world; and similarly to show the wide range of contacts that Mary Andrews had made through her work in numerous orgnaisations and attendance at conferences throughout the world.
Many of the letters are undated or the dates have been obscured. An attempt has been made to estimate these dates.
This series contrasts with Series 1 that consists of private letters to Mary Andrews

Typescript newsletter with updates on Deaconess House, the Homes of Peace, the prayer fellowship, and a devotional message from the Head Deaconess. Also includes mailing list from 1976.

This series contains newsletters sent by Mary Andrews to friends and supporters. Until 1975, these were distributed under the title of "The Church of England Deaconess Institution Prayer Fellowship Letter". In 1976 the title becomes "News Letter", reflecting Dss Andrews' retirement and roles in other organisations. From 1982 onwards, the title is "The Anglican Deaconess Institution Prayer Fellowship Letter" following a decision by the Deaconess Council to revive the earlier newsletter - aside from a small number in 1982 under the banner of The Anglican Fellowship of Prayer.
The newsletters contain homilies or spiritual insights from Dss Andrews, news relevant to the Deaconess institution (and other organisations, following Dss Andrews' retirement), personal news and travel reports. Dates and times for events related to the Deaconess Association (and others) are also listed, as are prayer requests and brief news from other members of the Association. Occasional attachments such as invitations to Deaconess House graduations are also included.
Newsletters were published once every 2-3 months in the 1950s, 60s, and early 70s; yearly from 1975; then once every three months from 1982.
This series had been previously set apart and placed in acid-free folders. New series numbers have since been added and fasteners replaced with plastic paperclips, and duplicates have been discarded, but no other changes have been made.
This series was originally combined with Series 5.
