Department of Peace: Campaign to establish a Canadian federal Department of Peace
On April 19, 2008, the Mennonite Church Canada General Board approved a Christian Witness Council recommendation calling for the denomination to become a supporting organization of the federal Department of Peace movement.
As outlined on the campaign website, the primary mandate of a peace department would be to rejuvenate and enhance Canada's traditional peacebuilding role in areas of nonviolent conflict resolution, human rights, and social and economic justice.
MC Canada invites congregations and individuals to create local chapters to strengthen the campaign and intensify its influence on our government.
