Peace Conference

The Art of Everyday Peace

At this year’s Peace Conference, participants will explore the practice of everyday peace and discover how shifting narratives can foster greater hope, optimism, and inspiration. The event will highlight the role individuals can play in making peacebuilding a tangible reality both locally and globally. As followers of Christ, we are called to pursue right relationships in our communities and beyond, especially in a world and church increasingly marked by division. Practical tools like conflict transformation and healthy dialogue are essential for living out a peaceful witness.

In the midst of human brokenness and conflict, MCC supports initiatives that aim to strengthen relationships and address the root causes of violence. This conference will offer insights and skills drawn from MCC’s collaborative peacebuilding efforts with partners around the world. Attendees will gain practical knowledge from these shared experiences, equipping them to contribute meaningfully to peace in their own contexts. 
 

Choose how and where you attend

Attend in person, at home remotely or at a local watch party in Niagara, Leamington or Markham. Remote watch party attendees receive the same programming as in-person attendees (activities, lunch, etc). MCC hosts will be on-site at the watch parties. We want to encourage those residing in the remote watch party areas to consider attending one - but everyone is welcome to attend the location of their choice.

Kids programming will be made available in partnership with Silver Lake Mennonite Camp at the Kitchener location only.
