As Plains Mennonite Church, we invite you to join us and thousands of others in a “Christian Peace Witness for Iraq.†As followers of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, our faith compels us to make our voice heard — to repent of our complicity with the invasion and occupation of Iraq and to renew our commitment to peacemaking.
Plains Mennonite Church has chartered a 54-passenger bus to travel to Washington, D.C., on Friday, March 16, 2007, for the “Christian Peace Witness for Iraq.†This event is open to families. Children under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or adult. Cost for the bus is $30 per person, due when you register.

The opinions expressed in articles posted on Mosaic’s website are those of the author and may not reflect the official policy of Mosaic Conference. Mosaic is a large conference, crossing ethnicities, geographies, generations, theologies, and politics. Each person can only speak for themselves; no one can represent “the conference.” May God give us the grace to hear what the Spirit is speaking to us through people with whom we disagree and the humility and courage to love one another even when those disagreements can’t be bridged.
