Mothers’ Union 150th Anniversary Worldwide Gathering 2026

One Worldwide Family: Growing in Faith, Living in Action, United in Fellowship

Join us in Durban, South Africa for a once-in-a-generation celebration of 150 years of Mothers’ Union — a movement of faith and action that spans the globe.

30 September – 3 October 2026

This historic gathering will bring together members from across the world to celebrate our legacy, strengthen our global fellowship, and boldly explore what it means to be the Next Generation Mothers’ Union.

Together, we will:

  • Flourish in faith for the future,
  • Live out our faith by empowering communities, and
  • Celebrate our unity as one worldwide family in Christ.

This is more than a conference. It’s a celebration of who we are, what we stand for, and how we will light the way for generations to come

Core Themes

1. Next Generation Mothers’ Union: Flourishing in Faith for the Future

How can Mothers’ Union remain relevant and flourishing in a changing world? This theme explores how we embrace new leadership, use technology wisely, and respond to the evolving ways church and community life are lived out today. Together, we will reflect on how to nurture members, inspire transformation, and ensure our movement thrives for generations to come.

2. Living Out Our Faith: Empowering Communities

Mothers’ Union has always been rooted in faith lived through action. This theme focuses on how we can bring hope, renewal, and change to communities worldwide — tackling poverty, injustice, and violence together, and being God’s hands and feet in a hurting world.

3. Celebrating Global Fellowship: One Worldwide Family in Christ

This is a moment to rejoice in our diversity and unity. Through worship, storytelling, and shared reflection, we will celebrate our global fellowship, stand in solidarity on pressing issues, and renew our sense of mission as one worldwide family, united in Christ
