Learning together: an online conversation
In an effort to deepen relationships between our Canadian congregations and our international church family in Colombia, Mennonite Church Canada International Witness is sponsoring an online conversation with Iglesia Cristiana Menonita de Colombia (IMCOL), our sister church in Colombia. Led by members of our Mennonite Church Canada nationwide family of faith, we will ask IMCOL leaders to share with us what is happening in their communities amid ongoing protests in Colombia, while Mennonite Church Canada members will share about the recent findings of children's remains at the former residential school in Kamloops, B.C.
We will discuss what our church bodies are learning, what we can do in our different situations and ask each other how we can strengthen the church in light of what is happening in our current contexts.
Mennonite Church Canada is currently forming a Witness Support Network for ministry in Colombia. To learn more about Witness Support Networks, visit mennonitechurch.ca/witness-support-networks.
We have one month left to reach our Global Companionship goals for this year.
We are inviting your support for an additional $48,000 by the end of March!
Why Global Companionship?
The goal of mission is not primarily aid (humanitarian assistance); it’s not even partnership. We engage in mission to establish friendships that lead to the formation of a new people in the world... If we are in Christ, we have become part of a new creation.
