Celebrating

• Morning Star Mennonite Church and their food pantry ministry, operating in a depressed area of Muncie, IN. Sharon Yoder and Central District Conference Minister Doug Luginbill were touched by countless stories of God’s Spirit moving in this ministry when they visited Morningstar pastors Gladys Maina and Simon Mungai on September 26.  
• One-word take-aways from our annual IMMC leadership teams gathering September 15-16: Purpose. Hope. Joy. Inclusive. These are celebrating words!
• Conversations with an emerging congregation in northwest Ohio. Representatives from their group joined our leadership teams gathering on September 16 to learn more about our conference culture. Joanne Gallardo will join their worship service October 29, to preach and entertain further conversation about possible affiliation.
