- Barna Group estimates that about 70 percent of students entering college as Christians will leave with little to no faith. I don’t know about you, but that stirs a desire in me to help my kids develop a deep faith now that they won’t be likely to abandon when they leave home. The big question […]

Today, the 1,000-member congregation is birthing a church plant, SouthLife Church, in South Wichita. “Very few churches beyond 15- or 20-years old plant a campus or launch […]

If you’ve read anything at all about the Eastern District Conference of MB Churches, you’ll probably know at least three things: We are excited about Christ, we are excited to see people come to Christ, and we are excited about building communities that are driven by Christ’s love. We know that because we are sinners these goals can be complicated, frustrating, and often expensive. However building churches as a community is the most exciting way to experience God.
Our Vision
Because of the amazing love of God and the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the ECD Conference seeks to fulfill the Great Commission by making disciples, devolving godly leaders, and church multiplication.
Our Family Connections
The Eastern District Conference of Mennonite Brethren Churches is a part of the larger US Conference of Mennonite Brethren Churches. You can visit the USMB website to learn more about us and our larger family. We are connected globally with other Mennonite Brethren believers through the International Community of Mennonite Brethren, (ICOMB).
The Eastern District, along with three other districts, Central, Southern and the Latin American MB Conference (LAMB), own Tabor College, a four year, Christ-centered liberal arts college located in Hillsboro, KS.
We partner together with MB Foundation to provide financial resources for congregations, conferences and individuals.
What We Believe
We believe that the Bible is God’s message to us to tell us about himself and how he wants us to live. The ways in which we believe the Bible informs our common life is outlined in the USMB Confession of Faith.
Who We Are
Mennonite Brethren are followers of Jesus who have a common spiritual heritage, share basic theological perspectives and core convictions. Learn more about our heritage by clicking here.
Our Governance
The Eastern District Conference of MB Churches is a regional group of churches who voluntarily submit to one another via the Bylaws of the Eastern District Conference. Member churches agree to be bound by these bylaws and cooperate together for the benefit of all. Eastern District churches are also members of the US Conference of MB Churches (USMB) and work together in harmony with the Bylaws of the US Conference.
