For a good summary of MennoCon, check out this article by our own Mackenzie Miller!

Of the 1,640 people at the Mennonite Church USA convention, 555 were high school youth, with 188 youth sponsors. There were seminars and even a party tailored to youth. For many, the convention was a place to build relationships, learn and grow in faith.
