Theme
Solidarity
Why this theme was chosen
Our MWC tagline lists “living out unity” as a core part of our identity. We exercise solidarity with our fellow Anabaptists across denominational lines locally, around the world, with the body of Christ more broadly, and with partners in building peace and pursuing justice.
Solidarity is another word for the connection we exercise within the body of Christ. Unity expressed through actions reverberates beyond our efforts: we raise our voices and our finances in support; we stand together and lift each other up; we pay attention so that no one is left behind.
