Michelle's love of travel began when she was 9 years old on an assignment with Mennonite Central Committee in Nigeria with her parents. She has continued to travel primarily with family in North America and for her, trip planning helps build excitement and anticipation. She is excited to be part of TourMagination Mennonite heritage tours.
On this commemorative Anabaptist heritage tour in Europe, visit significant sites that will bring to life the stories of Menno Simons, Pilgram Marpeck, Dirk Willems, Jakob Amman, and other important Anabaptist leaders. Connect past to present by joining Anabaptists from around the world at a 500th anniversary celebration of the first adult baptisms in Zürich, organized by Mennonite World Conference. Reflect in a cave where Anabaptists worshipped in secret, take a cable car up Stockhorn mountain, see the historic Dutch village of Zaanse Schans, and stay in the homes of hospitable locals in Menno Simons’ hometown, Witmarsum. Along the way, experience the cultural richness that Switzerland, France, Germany, and the Netherlands have to offer. Mennonite archivist Conrad Stoesz will guide you on this journey of discovery and fellowship.
