Convention hones Mennonite Church USA’s message to a fine point: When Jesus is central, peacemaking isn’t complicated
As violence continues in some parts of northern Ethiopia, a delegation from Meserete Kristos Church was able to visit some congregations last month in the state of Tigray.

Since their first episode in December, Erin Milanese, Abby Nafziger and Tillie Yoder have co-hosted the “Just Plain Wrong” podcast, in which the three Mennonite librarians, who all worked at Goshen College at the time, review depictions of Amish, Mennonites and other Plain groups in fictional works such as Amish romance novels, television shows and films.
