A Christmas Greeting from Michael Pahl and MCM Staff
On behalf of the staff that serve us together as Mennonite Church Manitoba, let me extend our heartfelt wish for each of you, that you would know the presence of Christ during the Christmas season, bringing hope, peace, joy, and love, even in troubled times. Read the whole greeting.
MCM Gathering 2022 – March 4 & 5
The MCM Board of Directors worked at Gathering plans. Here are the basic decisions:
The Delegate Gathering will be fully online on the 5th. How much time we take online together is yet to be determined.
The Leadership Day is still uncertain… we will make plans for in-person the afternoon of March 4, but may transition to online if need be.
