World MU
We are a mission agency of the Anglican Church of Australia and part of the worldwide Mothers’ Union with links to 84 countries and over four million members who share one heartfelt vision - to bring about a world where God's love is shown through prayer and loving, respectful and flourishing relationships.
The Worldwide Mothers’ Union President - Kathleen Snow in 2025
On January 1st 2025, the new Worldwide President commenced for a 6-year term.
Kathleen Snow has served on the Trustees Board for 6 years as the Zonal Trustee for the Americas, and has been a member of Mothers’ Union for thirty-six years!
The Mothers’ Union Wave of Prayer is a special way of connecting MU members with each other around the world through the ministry of prayer. MU members are asked to pray for particular rostered dioceses at midday local time, so that each MU diocese is prayed for on three consecutive days each year.
Because of our MU Wave of Prayer, which has been in place for over 100 years, since 1921, there has been continuous prayer for MU and its work. As the different time zones move around the world, there is sure to be someone praying for you!
