Resources from OthersThe number of peace resources being produced is unfathomable. We don't know about all of them--not all the excellent ones or all the Mennonite ones. We do not have a goal of finding or evaluating resources.However, we want to take the opportunity to let you know about a few that we use and think will be helpful to you. We in no way claim that this is a complete list or a fair list. It's just our list, and Leo and Susan will use our judgment about what to include.
We also provide many free downloadable resources
In response to the growing national and local conversation about immigration, First Mennonite Church, Lincoln, Nebraska, has created banners bearing this message, originally developed by the Peace and Justice Support Network of Mennonite Church USA.
The congregation is making the banners available to for public display as a reminder of God's concern for all people and a call for just immigration policies. Consider placing a banner in English or Spanish in front of your place of worship to remind everyone that God still cares about foreigners in the land.
