Women Walking in Faith - August 2019 - Igniting flames of hope in the midst of ending

"On June 30, at our annual general meeting in Abbotsford, B.C., Mennonite Women Canada elected to dissolve our nationwide ministry for the purpose of releasing energy and assets to the regional churches so that they can grow stronger in their ministry with and through women within their contexts."

So begins the article written by Shirley Redekop (President) and Elsie Rempel (Secretary) under the heading Women Walking in Faith, our bi-monthly contribution to the Canadian Mennonite.

MW Canada members vote to dissolve the organization and turn the assets over
to the five regional churches for future women’s ministries.
