How to achieve peace without going to war using weapons and politics is a big challenge for MWC. We do not only think for ourselves but for all human beings on this earth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Europe representatives<\/h3>\n<p><strong><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-src=\"https:\/\/mwc-cmm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/alexander_neufeld.png\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 100px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 100\/100;float:left\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\">Alexander Neufeld<\/strong><br \/>\nCongregation: Evangelischmennonitische Freikirche Dresden, Germany<br \/>\n&#8220;I am grateful to be part of MWC because it boosts my sense of belonging to a wonderful family of faith and provides me with an opportunity to meet and to interact with so many loving and interesting people.

We fail utterly and completely and constantly.
