Mennonite Women USA

Who are Mennonite women today? We are all ages and belong to many races and ethnic groups. We meet in Bible study groups, coffee hours, mission and service groups, one-on-one in friendships, and at retreats. We are women who juggle work, family, and spiritual growth–yet seek to be part of faith circles that fit our needs.         "Living a life of gratitude does not equal living a life of happiness."

Mission and Vision  Our mission at Mennonite Women USA is to empower women and women's groups as we nurture our life in Christ through studying the Bible, using our gifts, hearing each other, and engaging in mission and service. Our vision   Mennonite Women USA invites women across generations, cultures, and places to share and honor our stories, care for each other, and express our prophetic voice boldly as we seek to follow Christ. Mennonite Women USA is the women’s organization of Mennonite Church USA. Our history began in 1916-1917 with Women’s Missionary and Service Commission and Women in Mission. These two organizations merged into Mennonite Women in 1997 and became Mennonite Women USA in 2003.
