MWC financial update
Bogotá, Colombia – We are grateful for the steady flow of contributions in support of Mennonite World Conference, whether from our national member churches, local congregations, or individuals. We are somewhat surprised that giving is slower this... 閱讀全文
Taking action for your neighbourhood
There is a saying that you don’t know what you have until you lose it. I would add “or until you see the real and present danger that you could lose it.” Something similar happened to our natural resources. For a long time, we had accessible clean... 閱讀全文
Churches together for climate justice
“Climate Justice Now!” “People Power!” “Keep it in the ground!” echoed through the corridors as I walked through the Blue Zone – the place where 197 member-states of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) gathered in... 閱讀全文

我們如何從聖經回答21世紀的問題？
我們如何從聖經回答21世紀的問題？ 那真的是個挑戰！ 聖經的某些部分的信息非常的明確也永遠有效。但是，因為我們的世界已經大幅地改變，有些二十一世紀的問題迫使我們重新評估聖經的其他部分。然而，我們如何知道何時要堅守先前的信念，何時應該開創新見解與方法？ 於2010至2012年間，我們的地方教會想要找到這個問題答案，尤其觀於性與婚姻的議題，焦點是婚前性行為。它並非唯一的倫理問題，也當然不是最重要的倫理問題！但是它是個觀乎每個世代的問題，且可能間接影響更廣泛定義之教會家庭。 一起研讀聖經... 閱讀全文
三寶壟的整全關顧事工
在印尼這個擁有世界上最大的穆斯林人口的國家中，門諾會教會跨越宗教與階級的界線，帶著地方政府機關和宗教機構支持，以整全的照顧回應社區的需要。 教會見證上帝的愛與恩典的方式是：歡迎穆斯林弟兄姊妹以及不同宗教信仰的人。「他們不是敵人；他們是需要上帝的愛與幫助的人，就跟我們一樣。」印尼門諾會、國度福音教會的牧師 Victor Purnomo 說道。「少了憎恨與怒氣的高牆，教會能夠以具有創意的方式向都市裡有需要的人伸出援手，最終能感動市民的心。 國度福音教會... 閱讀全文
門諾會世界大會的共同信念如何在這美麗、在地多元的全球社群中體現？
門諾會世界大會的共同信念如何在這美麗、在地多元的全球社群中體現？ 身為重洗派門諾會基督徒，我們的使命與我們所承認並宣稱的身份密切相關。因為這個原因，《我們的共同信仰：探討重洗派相關教會的「共同信念」》內含向信仰社群傳遞我們是誰及主託付給我們的事工所需的知識。 社會、經濟與文化不公義的現象在墨西哥不斷地增加。暴力造成的死傷每一天都在發生。在這種脈絡中見證耶穌，需要清楚知道我們是誰以及我們被誰呼召、為了什麼而被呼召。我認為，《我們的共同信仰》清楚地回答這些問題，尤其是第七條：「... 閱讀全文
在變動的時代中以耶穌為中心
北美的教會正經歷快速的改變，許多人在說，這些改變如十六世紀的大改革一樣巨大。傳統的信念受質疑，先前的結構不再運作，新形式的教會正在出現。 在這種變化的時代裡，「基本信念」提供了勇氣、穩定性與新方向的基準。全球重洗派七條共同信念有助於提供那樣的根基。 在我們當中的一些教會裡，漸漸地有另一新的重點—對新的改革相當關鍵，也就是耶穌作為主。就如同我們重洗派的前輩重新發覺了耶穌是活著的一樣，這位耶穌那時已被奧秘與儀式「神龕化」了幾百年。今日對在日常生活中跟隨一位活著的耶穌有了更強而有力的重點。時常，「... 閱讀全文
