For over 136 years, Woman’s Missionary Union (WMU) has helped Southern Baptists fulfill the Great Commission. We understand the challenges church leaders face — limited time, resources, and volunteers — when trying to mobilize their congregation for missions. But we also believe every church member is mandated by God to obey the Great Commission.

We carry out this vision by:

• creating missions discipleship resources for every age-level in your church
• offering opportunities to serve with compassion ministries, and
• equipping church members through leadership development.

WMU has been mobilizing Southern Baptists for over a century, and our commitment has never wavered.

Our legacy includes:

• Supporting thousands of missionaries through the Cooperative Program, the Lottie Moon Christmas Offering, and the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering.
• Raising up generations of mission-minded believers through Girls in Action (GA), Royal Ambassadors (RA), and more.
• Partnering with churches, seminaries, and mission organizations to advance the gospel worldwide.

WMU provides age-appropriate resources so that every church member — from preschoolers to adults — can actively engage in missions.

Each resource is designed to help people in your church

• learn about missions,
• pray for missions,
• support missions, and
• do missions and tell people about Jesus.

WMU creates missions resources for your church based on these commitments:

Biblically rooted
Scripture guides us in knowing God, His ways, His character, His mission, His redemptive acts, and His purpose for the church.

Missions focused

Jesus commissioned His disciples to proclaim the good news disciple people of all nations, and teach them to live out the truths He taught.

Church based

Jesus gave the church authority to act on His behalf. Teaching all ages prepares the church to fulfill His mission.

World aware

God is always at work among all peoples, and we join Him where we discern He is calling us.

Denominationally supportive

No one church can do alone what many churches can do together. Our voluntary cooperation extends the missions reach of the local church.

You don't have to figure it out alone. WMU is here to help—with resources, encouragement, and a plan that makes missions a natural part of your church's DNA.
