Pursue peace
This year our theme is centered around one of the Shared Convictions as Anabaptist-related churches within Mennonite World Conference: The Spirit of Jesus empowers us to trust God in all areas of life so we become peacemakers who renounce violence, love our enemies, seek justice and share our possessions with those in need.
1 Peter 3:8–12
