Tours to the 15th Global Assembly of Mennonite World Conference

Mennonite World Conference 2009


Top Ten Reasons to go to Paraguay 2009
by Ray Brubacher, International Coordinator, Assembly 15
  1. Experience how our brothers and sisters in the global South interpret Scripture, including the text of the Assembly Gathered week: Philippians 2:1-11.
  2. Be a part of building a global bond of the family of faith as it worships together in a world assembly once every six years.
  3. Sit in on the meetings of the MWC General Council to see the global church at work.
  4. Witness first hand the amazing story of how Mennonites came to Paraguay and built communities, businesses, churches, and schools with limited resources.
  5. Sing as one with people from many different languages from around the globe; we may not be able to speak each other’s languages, but we can sing each other’s songs.
  6. Meet the hundreds of youth who plan to attend the second Global Youth Summit, bringing new life, vision, and energy to the global church.
  7. Experience what it means to come together in a spirit of mutual humility and respect, eager to learn new perspectives.
  8. Learn how the Mennonites of Germanic origins and the original indigenous peoples encountered each other, wrestled with mutual suspicion and prejudice, and overcame both even as they continue to find ways to come together today in a common faith.
  9. Meet with others who have similar interest and come together for special meetings held in conjunction with Assembly Gathered: theological educators, mission leaders, women theologians, indigenous persons from several countries, business leaders, historians.
  10. Participate in Assembly Scattered in various locations throughout Latin America, helping those you meet to experience the global Anabaptist church.
God is calling us to Paraguay. Vamos!
