Mennonite Mission Network has a long-term relationship with SEMILLA, Seminario Anabautista Latinoamericano based in Guatemala City. SEMILLA works at a regional level providing Anabaptist study materials and educational programs. In November 2016 SEMILLA hosted a meeting with Spanish language Anabaptist theological education programs to develop cooperative efforts for studying online. The Comunidad de Instituciones Teológicas Anabautistas (CITA) was formed at this gathering to facilitate collaborative on-line theological education.
The Mennonite churches in Guatemala have primary relationships with Eastern Mennonite Missions (EMM). Mission Network is grateful for EMM’s collaboration, especially in the ministries together with the Q’eqchi’ (also spelled Kekchi) indigenous Iglesia Nacional Evangélica Menonita Guatemalteca (INEMGUA).
In addition to regional partners CITA and SEMILLA, the Movimiento de Mujeres Anabautistas Haciendo Teología desde América Latina (MTAL–Movement of Anabaptist Women doing Theology from Latin America) is included on this page, though as a movement it spans the region and doesn’t have a specific geographic base.
