Leaders Who Shaped Us collects the stories of 25 people who played a role in creating the community of Christian believers known as the Mennonite Brethren in Canada. During the tumultuous years from 1910 to 2010, they led, sometimes cajoled, often inspired, at times sharply reproved, the church they were an intimate part of and loved. Their stories are worth reading.
