A group of Mennonite organizations are partnering to produce Making Change, a financial literacy video series. The series contrasts contemporary perspectives with biblical principles of sharing, saving and spending. It is intended to spark discussions about how faith influences and informs how money is managed.
Following a Mennonite Church Eastern Canada (MCEC) workshop on faith and finances, several organizations discussed ways to continue the conversation. Mennonite Central Committee, Mennonite Church Canada, MEDA, MAX Canada, Conrad Grebel University College, Rockway Mennonite Collegiate, Mennonite Savings and Credit Union, and Mennonite Foundation of Canada have joined MCEC in this partnership.
Jeff Steckley, of the MCEC states the series “will both entertain and provoke authentic conversation.”
The partnership has hired Rosco Films to produce the series which consists of four short videos that will appeal to a wide range of audiences from teens to seniors. The series is scheduled to be released in fall, 2013.
