Pacifist Who Went to War (DVD), The

     In 1939, as Canada joined World War II, a social crisis pulled apart the Mennonite communities of southern Manitoba.  Thousands of young Mennonite men were forced to decide: in the face of 400 years of pacifist tradition, should they now go to war?  The controversy is brought to life as brothers Ted and John Friesen reflect on their choices.  Ted became a conscientious objector, while his brother went into military service.  Others were similarly divided, as the heart of Mennonite culture clashed with duty to one’s country.  Deep and raw, the firsts endured for decades.  Fifty years later, the town of Winkler dedicates its first war memorial and John begins to share his war experiences with Ted,  Shedding light on the courage and conviction of both sides, this film features illuminating interviews with Mennonite author Rudy Wiebe, conscientious objectors, war veterans and a new generation of Canadian Mennonites.  More than a half-century later, are the rifts beginning to heal?

Spanish Lookout History in Action (DVD)

     In 1958 Mennonites from Mexico settled in Spanish Lookout, Belize, then called British Honduras.  Opening the land and making this their new home was extremely hard.  But they believed that God, the Almighty Father, had brought them here, and He would also find a way for them and their children.  After seeing this video you will understand that what Spanish Lookout is today has cost our fathers much sweat, and sometimes a lot more than that.

     Peter Bargen was just seven years old when he and his family narrowly escaped the Russian Gulag and almost certain death.  Those relatives who remained in the USSR were not so fortunate.  During Joseph Stalin’s reign (1929 to 1953), between 45 and 60 million people, among them thousands of Mennonites, perished through enforced exile, execution, famine and disease.  Now, in a story that crosses continents and binds together generations, the discovery of a cache of rare and long-forgotten letters reveals the terrifying details of the fate of many families.

     Die Geschichte der Mennoniten in Russland von 1788 bis heute wird durch historisches Bildmaterial, nachgestellte Filmszenen sowie durch Interviews mit noch Iebenden Zeitzeugen sehr eindrucksvoll und bewegend dargestellt.  Viele Themen, die der Film aufwirft, sind in unserer heutigen Zeit genauso aktuell wie damals.  Die Frage, wie christliche Werte und Glaubensueberzeugungen in einem saekularen Umfeld ueberzeugend gelebt warden koennen, betrifft uns heute genauso, wie die Mennoniten im damaligen Zarenreich und spaeter in der Sowjetunion.
