Ambassadors of Reconciliation: 2013 Peace Sunday Packet
2013, 26 pp
Mennonite Central Committee encourages Canadian Anabaptist congregations to observe Peace Sunday on
November 3 or 10, just prior to Remembrance Day (November 11). The purpose of this Peace Sunday Packet is to
help plan a Peace Sunday worship service and other activities that remind us of our identity as peace churches and
that offer a witness against war and violence. This year’s packet — Ambassadors of Reconciliation — is inspired by
the text 2 Corinthians 5:17–20. God reconciles us to himself and also charges us with a ministry of reconciliation.
God loves us and requires us to love others.
Mennonite Church Canada congregations and initiatives figure significantly in this year's packet. See, for example, references to:
