Mennonite Life's vision is diverse communities connecting across boundaries by knowing and valuing their own and each other's stories of life, faith, cultures, and histories. Its mission is to hold, honor, and share items and stories featuring the lived experiences and faith values of Lancaster's Mennonites and interrelated communities.
