Mennonite World Conference produces three types of documents approved by the General Council:

• governance documents (pertaining to the function of MWC)
• statements (speaking to the MWC family about our values & convictions)
• teaching resources (helping local and national churches reflect on Anabaptist identity and mission)

On this page you will find links to MWC teaching resources, produced by our commissions.
