Mennonite Church Manitoba Update

Mennonite Church Manitoba Update

Nationwide Worship from Charleswood Mennonite Church, Winnipeg – In Matthew 14: 22- 33, Jesus walks on the water and beckons Peter to follow him. How is the church being invited to step out of the boat and walk toward Jesus amid a storm of injustice, a pandemic, a climate crisis and uncertainty swirls around us?  Please join us as we gather to praise our Lord, who calls out to us to say, “Take heart, it is I; do not be afraid.”  Watch at https://www.mennonitechurch.ca/worshipservices.

Help match Mennonite Church Canada’s donation to Mennonite World Conference’s COVID-19 relief fund!
