But are they really Anabaptist?

But are they really Anabaptist?

“But are they really Anabaptists?” This is a question I hear regularly. The “they” in the sentence varies depending on who is asking the question. Asking the awkward questions of ourselves and of others, probing the history, reading the Bible, observing culture, arguing about which beliefs and practices are essential—these all help us discern the Anabaptist family resemblance. This only happens as we engage each other as equals and as we genuinely encounter and honor our shared participation in Jesus Christ.

Reflection from a Pastors' Canoe Trip

It was a privilege to spend several days resting in the wilderness with five fellow pastors and ministry leaders on a canoe trip centered on spiritual solitude at Massasauga Provincial Park, Spider Lake. Sharing this journey with Mark Diller Harder (our trip leader from St. Jacobs Mennonite Church), Norm Dyck (Crosshill Mennonite Church), Fanosie Legesse (Intercultural Minister), Brian Quan (Toronto Chinese Mennonite Church), and Daniel Tela (Shalom Worship and Healing Center) made the experience especially meaningful.

The Fullness of Christ

The Fullness of Christ

- by Marilyn Rudy-Froese

In The Anabaptist Bible, the word “church” appears twice in 1:22-23: “God put everything under Christ’s feet and made him head of everything in the church, which is his body. His body, the church, is the fullness of Christ, who fills everything in every way.” The Community Reflection Note in the margin asks, “What does it mean for the church—for our congregation—to be ‘the fullness of Christ’?” That question resonates with me as I think about the 106 congregations that make up MCEC.
