It was wonderful, so much so that we maintain contact. Every time they write to me, they say how much they love me\u201d, says Cindy Alpizar Alpizar, a plenary speaker, from Costa Rica.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The relationships extend beyond Assembly.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have also created a WhatsApp group with east African Mennonite church leaders to meet through zoom,\u201d Desalegn Abebe.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI made so many friends during assembly who are still in contact with me. We share our thoughts and updates from our countries. We share prayer requests so we can lift up each other in prayers,\u201d says Deepson Masih, a GYS delegate for Bhartiya General Conference Mennonite Church, from India.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Peaceful relationships&nbsp;<\/h4>\n<p>Many participants in Assembly were impressed by the Indonesian church\u2019s example of peaceful relationships with their Muslim neighbours.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe global assembly open my mind the importance of peace building, having harmony with the creation, the people, and also the Creator. It taught me to appreciate peace because our God is our example of peace,\u201d says Reynaldo Mercado Jr.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI&#8217;m particularly amazed about how the Anabaptist family open its doors to all manner of persons making sure that the world becomes a peaceful environment for everyone regardless of their religious affiliation,\u201d says Clinton Kwasi Agbanu, a member of the international ensemble, from Ghana.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Garry Janzen, an attendee from Canada, accidentally attended a workshop where Christian and Muslim people from an Indonesian village explained how they share the use of their worship facilities as needed. \u201cI learned later that this respectfulness was common in Indonesia. I was impressed.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Ed Kaufman from the USA witnessed this interfaith harmony on a pre-Assembly tour to GKMI Winong-Pati. \u201cIt was an example of peacebuilding, friendship and cooperation that will remain with me for a long time,\u201d he says. Christians, Muslims and government officials from the town spread carpets and blankets on the street between church and mosque to share a feast with music and speeches. \u201cOur entire visit with the church in Pati was wonderful, but this topped it off,\u201d he says.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Ongoing resourcing&nbsp;<\/h4>\n<p>The video workshops have continued to resource the Anabaptist-Mennonite family. Cindy Alpizar has shared them with MTAL events. Juan Garrido shared insights from Pablo\u2019s Stucky\u2019s workshop on resolving conflicts in light of the Bible.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Laurie Martin from the USA joined the STT students in a prayer and worship meeting further up the hill in a campus prayer building. \u201cI have never heard something so beautiful \u2013 ever,\u201d she says of the spontaneous worship session that broke out.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWorshipping in peace without conflict made me understand the nature of God as the God of peace,\u201d says Clinton. \u201cPeace to everyone and see you all in Ethiopia.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr>\n<table style=\"width:100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border-color:rgb(255, 255, 255)\">\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/mwccmm\/videos\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-src=\"https:\/\/mwc-cmm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/mwc_youtube.jpg\" width=\"313\" height=\"75\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 313px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 313\/75;\"><\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"border-color:rgb(255, 255, 255)\">\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/s\/aHBqjA8FPd\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-src=\"https:\/\/mwc-cmm.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/mwc_flickr.jpg\" width=\"313\" height=\"75\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 313px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 313\/75;\"><\/a><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cThere are so many memories and landmarks for the entire GYS\/Assembly period that if I were to mention them all it will need another 11 more days to explain it!\u201d says Peleka Jonathan Mpemba, a Global Youth Summit (GYS) delegate for Kanisa la Mennonite Tanzania.&nbsp; A year has passed since the global Anabaptist-Mennonite family gathered [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11306,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"network":[],"eventcategory":[299],"class_list":["post-8108","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","eventcategory-assembly"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
