Worship Resources

The Mennonite New Life Centre finds its inspiration in the gospel story of the Good Samaritan and in Mennonite values of community, mutual support, peace building and service. From the story of the Good Samaritan, we learn that the commandment to “love your neighbour” is a practical challenge to offer care and support across the boundaries of race and religion. As we do so, we are blessed by the friendship of those we serve. In this exchange of friendship, we become neighbours with the newcomers in our midst.

In an increasingly multicultural society, churches and social ministries are called to consider again the gospel challenge to love our neighbour and to become neighbours with those who once were strangers. The Mennonite New Life Centre seeks to be a place of reflection on the meaning of multicultural ministry. We offer resources to our supporting congregations to help them meet the challenges of building community out of diversity.
