2025 marks the 500th anniversary of the beginnings of the Anabaptist movement with the first adult baptisms in Zurich, Switzerland. On Tuesday evening, January 21 (7-8:30pm), we invite you and your congregation to join in a regional worship service at the College Mennonite Church (1900 South Main Street, Goshen) to recognize this significant milestone. The gathering--which will include singing, reflection, scripture reading, confession, and prayer--will also serve as the official launch of the Anabaptist Community Bible and conclude with a festive gathering in the Fellowship Rooms for food and fellowship.
No single group "owns" the Anabaptist story -- the event is intended as a regional gathering for all Anabaptist, Mennonite, Church of the Brethren, related groups . . . and friends of these groups. Please share this invitation with your congregation, your youth group, and with anyone in your friendship circle who might be interested.
