Peace Sunday
|
The Peace Sunday Packet for 2010 is entitled "Je me souviens" or "I remember." Written by MCC staff in Quebec, it will be available in French and English. The packet will be available on-line in mid August. Peace Sunday is an annual opportunity to reflect upon the gospel of peace proclaimed and embodied by Jesus Christ. At a time of year when our nation honours military service, Peace Sunday reminds us of Jesus' call to love our enemies, to resist evil nonviolently, and to live as people of peace. The Peace Sunday Packet is intended to help your congregation plan a Peace Sunday worship service around Remembrance Day, and to engage in reflection and witness beyond the worship service. In 2009, we encouraged you to plan a public prayer walk as a way of sharing the message of peace with the broader community. The following resource will help you plan such a prayer walk. It has been prepared by MCC Ontario. For more information contact peace@mennonitecc.ca. |
