Family and Sexuality in Mennonite History
Mennonites have lived in families and as sexual beings, throughout their history. Yet there has been minimal research on or conversation about the meaning, structure, and function of families in Mennonite history. Even less examined is the notion of sexuality as experienced and expressed by Mennonites in the past. Both are at the core of human identity. Conrad Grebel University College at the University of Waterloo in Waterloo, Ontario is hosting a 2-day conference on “Family & Sexuality in Mennonite History: An Academic and Community Education Conference,” October 12-13, 2007.
