César García, general secretary of Mennonite World Conference, received the PAX Award from Canadian Mennonite University (CMU) on 28 April 2023. The PAX Award honours people who lead exemplary lives of service, leadership and reconciliation in society.
“MWC is an agent of hope by bringing together churches and working on unity and reconciliation through our faith in Christ in a world immersed in conflict, fragmentation and divisions,” César García told the audience as he received the award.
“CMU is inspired by César García and MWC as a whole in nurturing a global communion of churches,” says CMU president Cheryl Pauls. “The MWC Shared Convictions are formative for CMU as a learning community that is rooted in the Anabaptist faith tradition.” |
