The Covid pandemic has presented unique obstacles for the work of Mission and Service but patience and innovative thinking has allowed the work to continue in various areas. Donna Entz has found new ways of connecting with the diverse community of North Edmonton thereby continuing to build connections that lead to better understandings between people of different faith traditions. Donna has also expanded her international work through Peacemakers Confessing Christ International and a Peace Africa group.
Jake Froese has continued to keep building relationships with the Muslim community in Calgary and has recently joined the Calgary Interfaith Council. Jake, along with Riek Tut, has also been able to work with members of the Calgary South Sudanese community who are looking to establish a South Sudanese Mennonite Church in Calgary.
Both Donna and Jake will share some of their experiences and give time for questions from the audience.
