Brander McDonald, indigenous relations coordinator for Mennonite Church British Columbia, will share his music and talk about his work as the main feature of Canadian Mennonite’s annual banquet to be held at Langley Mennonite Fellowship, 20997 40 Ave., Langley, B.C., on Saturday, April 18, 2015, at 6 p.m.

McDonald, billing himself as a Cree First Nations believer in Jesus, speaks of his two passions, “One, the passion of what it means to be a first nations cultural person and to be fully engaged as a lifelong follower of Jesus. Not the Jesus of residential schools of the past, not of government policy, but the Saviour represented in the gospels and even of Anabaptist traditions. I have a passion to share what it means to carry this cross-cultural heart for the healing of my native peoples and the church community to which I grew up in. The second passion is being a singer/songwriter who can share these same stories and lessons through song and speech.”

Tickets to the event are free. This is a fundraising event open to all Mennonite churches, and a call for donations will be made at the end of the night. Space is limited, so reserve your tickets early by calling the church at 604-530-0333 or emailing the church office at langfell@telus.net.
