Church as a Movement Training Event

April 23–24
The basic course, Church as a Movement, is an introductory training of No Place Left (NPL) designed to equip pastors, leaders, and believers with biblical foundations and practical tools for disciple making, evangelism, and strategic mobilization. This training introduces a clear vision of how the Church can move from traditional models toward a Church as a Movement, aligned with the Great Commission, focused on spiritual harvest, disciple multiplication, and reaching places and people where the gospel is not yet present.

Kairos is a course for Christians at any point in their journey with God, guiding each participant into a biblical worldview. It is not strictly a "missions" course; rather, it is an opportunity for all God's people to be transformed and aligned with God's heart for the nations. Cost is $125 per person and covers materials, refreshments, and lunches on Saturdays. If you are active in an LMC congregation, EMM offers a reduced cost of $95 per person.

1719 Museum Tour Guide Training

The 1719 Museum seeks community members to guide tours of the Herr House and Lancaster Longhouse in the spring, summer, and fall of 2026. New volunteers are asked to commit to attending all three training sessions and at least one tour date per month during the museum's open season. This is a three-session training course taking place the following dates:


Saturday, February 21, 9:00 a.m. – noon.


Friday, March 6, 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.


Friday, March 20, 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.


New guides do not need prior experience. Sessions will educate volunteers on topics relevant to leading tours at the 1719 Museum, including Lancaster County's Indigenous history, European Mennonite migration to the area, and techniques for guiding large groups through the museum. First-time guides will also have the chance to meet with current guides.


For more information, and to register, contact Heather Strahin at museum@mennonitelife.org or 717.464.4438.
