Equipping No. 61 November/December 2005
a resource packet for equipping Mennonite Church Canada pastors and leaders

   
 

Anita and Gina
are responsible for Equipping.
   

God’s creation is truly breathtaking – the glorious reds, oranges, and yellows of fall leaves peaking through morning fog, a chorus of geese breaking the peaceful silence. We are richly blessed by such wonders!

We are also fortunate to have access to a wide variety of church resources. In this edition of Equipping you will find information about World Fellowship Sunday, Week of Prayer and Advent materials, a new KidsPak, a selection of Parish Papers, as well as a variety of other noteworthy materials.

If you have any questions or comments, please call 1-866-888-6785 (888-6781 local) or e-mail . Enjoy!

Please help us…Can you help ensure that these items reach the right people? Thanks! Anita (left) and Gina (right) – Equipping Coordinators.
