An Anabaptist movement is building in U.S. and Canada outside the traditions and structures of the Mennonite, Brethren, Hutterite and Amish churches. This movement is centered in worship that thrives on the Biblical vision of shalom for all people and the Earth. The growth of this movement speaks to the urgency of u n d o i n g the net of oppressions that bind us in sin and keep us from be(com)ing whole and living well.

Becoming u n d o n e is a gathering that is accompanying the US Social Forum, which is dedicated to nurturing the external & internal possibilites for wholeness in the U.S. and the world. Both encounters provide an opportunity to expand the Anabaptist imagination as we engage new spaces and revive old ones. We also hope to learn from others who have responded to Jesus' call to discipleship and repentance. Our teachers are many, they include: JustaPaz in Colombia, Christian Peacemaker Teams, Jesus Radicals, Indonesian Mennonite efforts towards a Culture of Peace, the Mennonite Central Committee Anti-Racism program, and the Anabaptist Network in the UK (see AN-UK's core convictions here). We gather to confess our privilege and share our brokeness.
