April 29th, 2008 Into the world via . . .

The continuing admonishment to not be afraid from Jesus of Nazareth
The focus on what is good and lovely, real and true advocated by Paul of Tarsus
The hospitality of St. Benedict and Dorothy Day
The little ways of St. Theresa of Lisieux
The good news of faith as described by Menno Simons
The openness to question ourselves like Hans Denck
The nonviolent movement of Gandhi and Martin Luther King
The practice of engagement of Thich Nhat Hanh
The willingness to fall in love with the world like Thomas Merton
The creativity and quirkiness of Flannery O’Connor
The media savviness of Bono and Pope John Paul II

The generations past, present and future of hardworking and persistent Anabaptists who preserved and enlarged a way of peace through work and hope.
