2014 Heritage Sunday: Youth in the Mennonite Church

Recognizing the unique needs, gifts and wisdom of young Mennonites, past and present

This year on Heritage Sunday, Mennonite Church USA invites congregations to remember the gifts that young people have offered to our church. We know that young people are a vital part of any healthy congregation and over the years, through various efforts, congregations have sought to nurture and empower each generation to be bold workers in God’s kingdom. This Heritage Sunday, we remember the initiatives Mennonites have taken over the years to minister to and nurture the young in their midst. We also remember the voices of the young themselves as active members of church life from one generation to the next. - from the introduction
