The Delegate Assembly is over, and decisions have been made. What has changed? What does it mean for my conference, my congregation and me? What opportunities are there for us to live into our Renewed Commitments to “follow Jesus, witness to God’s peace and experience the transformation of the Holy Spirit”?

See the Delegate Assembly news page for more details and photos.

Mennonite Woman Voices - Question: Juvenile Criminal Justice Our local community center, of which I am chair of the board, is in the middle of construction. We want our new building to be a haven of positive and safe community engagement. But last week, a group of young boys (average age of 12) threw rocks through the windows of our old building.
