2011 Ministry Highlights:
67 Things Mennonite Church Canada Does
“What do you do, anyway?”
It’s a common question asked of Mennonite Church Canada.
This at-a-glance look at a typical year (in this case 2011) in
the life and ministry of your national church is a response to
that question.
Through five Area Churches, over 220 congregations
and the hands of thousands, Mennonite Church Canada
ministries shape a people of God who spread the good
news of God’s all-encompassing shalom across the street
and around the world. More than simply a wish for “peace,”
shalom embraces the breadth of Anabaptist theology and
the vision of Mennonite Church Canada. It brings healing
and hope by fostering harmony with God, with self, with
others and with creation.
Just how wide is Mennonite Church Canada’s circle of
influence? Together, we minister in 26 countries including
Canada. Through evangelism and church planting,
education and leadership training, peace and conflict
resolution training, community development, and ministry
partnerships, we are growing relationships for God’s holistic
vision of shalom inside the church and beyond.
We invite you to join us in celebration of all the ministry
we do together. By sharing your precious space with us, you
help us to find the prayer and financial support that enables
us to grow God’s church together.
Please consider sharing excerpts from this summary to
report on our shared activities in church - at your annual
congregational meeting, your bulletin boards, church
newsletters, and Sunday morning bulletins.
