Who Are Mennonites?

So, what is a Mennonite? We get that question a lot…

Mennonites are a Christian faith group that began in the 16th century. Currently there are over one million members world-wide. Mennonite beliefs and practices vary widely, but following Jesus in daily life is a central value, along with peacemaking.

For more information, we highly recommend the Third Way Web site.  Here you will find an excellent source of complete and accessible information about the basic beliefs of Mennonites, with links to our historical roots within the Anabaptist stream of Christianity.
