Saturday, October 26th, we are hosting a study conference on the topic of Women in Ministry Leadership to look again from a 'non-restrictive' perspective at the theological landscape on this important issue; the journey that the Mennonite Brethren have taken to their position today; and the key biblical texts and how they are interpreted. This study conference is for women and men from various backgrounds and perspectives to study the theological history and interpretation of the Mennonite Brethren on this topic.

Keynote Speakers:
