We are glad to share our #Christmas video with you. May your celebrations be filled with light. vimeo.com/landiscommun...

As a PA resident, it is sad to see long-time companies going under and lives affected. Balancing that off with the whole #FAFO feeling. www.pennlive.com/news/2025/12...

A San Antonio pastor tells Border Report that several members of her Mennonite congregation face deportation after being arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at government check-ins. https://www.kxan.com/border-report/pastor-says-ice-arresting-congregants-at-check-ins/ 

I KNEW it. "Days after FIFA President Gianni Infantino handed Donald Trump the “FIFA Peace Prize” federal prosecutors in New York asked to dismiss a major soccer bribery case against FIFA corruption." theintellectualistofficial.substack.com/p/days-after...

And people wonder why our kids are leaving churches and becoming "nones." When this is the public face of "Christianity" no thanks.

She is Mennonite (conservative, but not Old Order, and not Amish, so the driving is fine. The phone is likely OK too, probably just phone and text, no internet. Of course, in PA, she is doing something illegal for everyone, not just Anabaptists!

Anneken Jansz, burned to death in 1571, said, "Do not regard the great number nor walk in their way…but where you hear of a poor, simple, cast-off little flock, which is despised and rejected by the world, join them; for where you hear of the cross, there is Christ; from there do not depart." AMEN

Fantastic!

Volunteers at the Mennonite Central Committee Material Resource Center in Ephrata, Pennsylvania, transform raw materials, donated goods and hours of service into life-saving aid for people facing war, displacement and disaster around the world. Watch here to step inside MCC's relief operations.

So hard to have conversations when this is the attitude from persons in church leadership positions. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/a-christia...

And this is where we are at folks. #POTUS and his minions are making up things to get his base riled up. And I can tell you, it still works on far too many. factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com....

Glad to be playing a small part in this effort.

mcc.org/our-stories/... We give to MCC and the Canadian Foodgrains Bank along with our church, Danforth Mennonite Church, Toronto

Great to see Landis Homes Healthcare team honored in this way. www.landishomes.org/2025/09/25/l...

Before FREE SPEECH: TONGUE SCREW.... A way to silence opponents in the Middle Ages. "Anabaptist Hans Bret's tongue screw was taken from his ashes by another Anabaptist and preserved in the Mennonite church in Amsterdam." Image purchased from the Mennonite Archival Information Database.

So, FCC Chair says publicly to ABC about @jimmykimmel.com: “We can do this the easy way or the hard way." Lo and behold #Disney and #ABC bend the knee. Imagine Laugh In doing that, or SNL over the years, or Carson. All skewered presidents.

Took this as I walked into work this morning. #LititzPA #Rainbows

Orphaned quilt blocks and UFOs will be part of Mennonite Central Committee's annual Quilter’s Yard-age Sale (just in time for cozy season and craftober)🪡🧵https://lanc.news/Yardage25

The Trump administration ordered several National Park Service sites to take down materials related to slavery and Native Americans, including an 1863 photograph of a formerly enslaved man with scars on his back, one of the most powerful images of the Civil War era. nyti.ms/4nyyyaQ

I dare you to read this and not see how jacked up this world is, and most Americans view of the conflict there. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

Anywhere close to #LancasterPA? If so, I have your Saturday covered. Start the day at Landis Homes Fellowship Days. Food, auction, trains, etc. Then head to @hempfieldsd.bsky.social for #OpeningKnight. Some very good High School bands and the West Chester University #WCURamBand.

Imagine if the election had gone the other way and Kamala Harris tried to do this.

"...shining example of African Americans’ incredible contributions to our culture, our society, and our history. It also tells of the great struggle for freedom and equality that prevailed against the sins of slavery, and the injustice of discrimination." --Donald Trump 2017 #WhatChanged?

This is infuriating. Show how racism is embedded in the US policy.

Do you live near #LancasterPA? I highly recommend attending this showing of the award-winning film Unexpected Peace. 6:30 Sunday Sept. 7. subsplash.com/eastpetersbu... #Peacemaking

Gee, this sounds a lot like what an authoritarian would do, doesn't it?

TikTok investor Jeff Yass gave Trump's super PAC $16 million? Sounds about right. How many times has #POTUS delayed shutting them down? AI engines estimate #TikTok makes $26 million per day, so this is just good business.

A Mennonite Action delegation visited Palestinians to offer encouragement amid Israel’s disproportionate military response to a 2023 Hamas attack and returned to the United States with encouragement to continue advocating for an end to war

Glad to see people standing up, sad to see a hospital, supposedly a place of healing and hope, respond in this way. Terrible. www.wcpo.com/news/local-n...

#DEI alert. Oh wait, it was providing drinkable water to ag workers. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

This MIGHT be why we need regulations and controls.

Way to go #LittleMarcoRubio. english.elpais.com/internationa...

The Israeli Foreign Ministry issued a formal apology for the strike, while the Israeli army said it has launched an investigation into the strike on Gaza's only Catholic church.

Favorite time of the year. First batch of Dills. Question for those #Mennonite folks out there. Do you still preserve your own food? Specifically pickles? Anyone have a good Mustard Dill Pickle recipe to share? #Pickles #Produce

Help me understand. 7/5 FEMA received 3,027 calls from disaster survivors answered 99.7 percent. Contractors answered the vast majority of the calls. Noem did not renew the contracts and hundreds of contractors were fired. By 7/7 it was down to 15% of calls. #TXflood www.nytimes.com/2025/07/11/c...

These verses are going to be important in the coming months and years to remember who I am and what I believe. Isaiah 10:1-2 NLT

Ummmm, I am guessing this is not ideal. Although I can see #Trump et al using it to show how tough they were on people.

So as if there isn't enough bad stuff in the bill, did you know the exemption for tips income tax EXPIRES in 3 years. But the tax cuts for billionaires are PERMANENT. #Killthebill #Budgetshowwhatyouvalue

Its that time again: The Mennonite Church USA convention is July 8-12 in Greensboro, N.C.

Posting this quote without attribution, how does someone get to this belief? I really can't even place in a context where it makes sense to me. "We need to stop trusting the experts. Trusting the experts is not a feature of science or democracy, it's a feature of religion and totalitarianism."

This is so important! Please read and think about sharing with those who need to hear it. anabaptistworld.org/my-friend-sc...

I would tag my members of congress, but of course most don't use this app. How in God's green earth does this make us safer?

The ruling marked a major win for civil liberties groups who say the mandate violates the separation of church and state. religionnews.com/2025/06/20/c...

While crude, I believe the cool kids are using #FAFO in situations like this. BRIC was canceled. The $4.6 billion initiative was launched under the first Trump administration. Two-thirds of the money goes to counties that voted for Trump. www.cbsnews.com/femagrantcuts/

From Cesar Garcia, Sec. Gen of Mennonite World Conference. "We do not need the affirmation, favor or support of human governments. Our call is to serve society and present God’s kingdom vision in reliance on the Holy Spirit.” #Mennonite

It was a blessing to be in Zurich for the celebration of Anabaptism at 500. This is the General Sec. of Mennonite World Conference and the Interim General Sec. of the World Communion of Reformed Churches. There were also words of affirmation from Pope Leo XIV and Lutheran leaders. #Mennonite #WCRC

Can you imagine the outcry if a US President went to a foreign country and was accused of killing settlers and the "proof" offered was from a completely different country? #GOP would lose their minds. www.jpost.com/internationa...?
