Mennonite Church USA launched a “Reimagining MC USA” web portal Nov. 4 with an invitation for constituents to engage in dialog about the future of the church and give input via a churchwide survey.

The portal includes information about the Reimagining initiative, including the charter for a Structure Review Task Force, and the project’s two-year timeline leading to a structure proposal at the next Delegate Assembly in July 2027.

The MC USA Executive Board envisioned the restructuring process in late 2024 “to reimagine a framework that maintains the interconnectedness between the church’s various entities and better responds to current and future needs.”

A small-group discussion guide encourages congregations to explore themes of renewal, discipleship and community. The portal also includes a four-part video interview hosted by executive director Glen Guyton with John Register, a Paralympic silver medalist known for his message of resilience and transformation.

“This reimagining process is about more than structure — it’s about renewing our shared commitment to follow Jesus together in a rapidly changing world,” said Guyton in an MC USA release. “Through open dialogue, courageous listening and Spirit-led discernment, I believe we can rediscover the beauty of our connection as a missional body.

“My hope is that this process will inspire us to dream boldly, act faithfully and build a more vibrant and unified witness to God’s transformative power.”
