Remembering the 1990 MWC assembly in Winnipeg
On this day 30 years ago, Manitoba Mennonites were playing host to a global assembly of Anabaptists.
The 12th Mennonite World Conference Assembly took place in Winnipeg, Man. from July 24-29, 1990. The once-every-six-years event drew more than 12,000 registrants, including 1,600 from nearly 70 countries outside of North America. The theme was, “Witnessing to Christ in today’s world.”
