Dear Vera Rose,
My name is Michele Thiessen. I’m married to Ben Thiessen and we are from Alberta, Canada. We moved to Nova Scotia in April 2014. We are partaking in instruction classes with the full intention of applying for membership at Lighthouse Mennonite Church.

Editorial Note: Galen Weber of New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, Canada wrote a 50-page history of the Lighthouse Mennonite Church. Recognizing Galen’s powerful choice of words and keen insights, I asked Galen if he would write an account of one of the New Testament churches, and then a shorter version of the Lighthouse Mennonite Church story (2000 words).
Galen’s Response: “Thank you for the research/writing assignment. I intend to take it up. Mark you, however, the last glorious article I produced was rejected, without comment, by the editor.”
Writing Challenge to the Readers: Write the story of an Anabaptist church that you know personally, and share it with the readers of Anabaptist Voice. Pictures could be included.
