A diverse board of directors guides Mennonite Women USA.

The board hires an executive director to provide leadership and direction for actualizing the vision and day-to-day operations of Mennonite Women USA. The board may delegate duties to any subcommittee or adopt any procedures for the governance of MW USA consistent with the governance structure.

The board meets at least twice each year with at least one of those meetings face-to-face. Consensus is the preferred method of decision-making; however, any vote may pass with a majority of support of those present at a board meeting. For voting purposes, a quorum constitutes a majority of board members.

We need additional amazing women to serve on the Mennonite Women USA board for four-year terms beginning 1/1/19. Nominate yourself or a friend. We are praying for women who have:
• served in leadership positions in the church
• demonstrated ways to empower and embrace women’s ministries
• organizational skills and who can lead with insightful wisdom
• faith and are ready to be active team players
• insight for future creative initiatives
