With this issue we bring to a close another
year of Equipping. We hope we have inspired, informed, and involved you
in the work of Mennonite Church Canada with our programs and the information
we send out to you. Included in this edition are many resource materials
for your church and congregation. If you are anxious to read news and
reports about the November General Board meetings, please visit www.mennonitechurch.ca/news.
These reports will be published in the December 22 issue of Canadian Mennonite.
We wish you God’s blessing and Peace during the Advent season.
Thanks for your help! Karen Peters – Equipping Coordinator –
