What began in 1876 with the vision of our founder, Mary Sumner, has grown into a global movement of over 4 million members across 84 countries, united by a shared commitment to faith in action and transforming lives. From supporting mothers in a Hampshire parish to advocating for stronger families and communities around the world, our history is one of courage, compassion and lasting impact.
As we reflect on the journey that has brought us here 150 years later, we also look ahead with hope, continuing to respond to the needs of our communities through prayer, advocacy and practical action.
We look forward to celebrating this remarkable legacy together at St Paul's Cathedral this evening and giving thanks for the generations of members whose faith and service continue to inspire us.
