Who We Are

“Community” is what MCA is about! 

by Brenda Tiessen-Wiens, Moderator MCA

MCA is made up of 12 congregations that have committed to building community together. In community, we build a foundation for our identity and we find a place of belonging. In community, we draw on each other’s strengths and gifts to explore faith and pray, celebrate and mourn. We become enlivened, we practice generosity, and we share resources to do together what we can’t do alone.

Community is a place to ask the question, “And who is my neighbour?” and then to explore the nature and breadth of our neighbourhoods. The richness that we experience as members of a regional, nationwide, and global church is a taste of the Kingdom of God.

Nationwide call to prayer for Sunday, June 7, 2020

The regional churches of Mennonite Church Canada are asking all their congregations to set aside a specific time of prayer on Sunday, June 7, to join our sister churches in Mennonite Church USA as they lament the injustice and violence suffered by people of colour in the U.S.

This nationwide call to prayer is a call for the church to boldly stand against racism that rips apart the social fabric of both of our countries. As a church, we speak for a God who made all persons in the image of the Creator’s likeness. We are called to raise our voices and prayers and denounce the evil that racism inflicts upon our fellow human beings.

(Includes links to worship resources and prayers for congregational use.)
