    3. Hello, All, Some of you might be interested in checking this website below. I copied this message from the Menno-Roots List. Faith Hutchings faith@verdenet.com The five volumes of the _Mennonite Encyclopedia_ are very expensive. Herald Press has given permission for any or all of the encyclopedia articles to be added to the _Canadian Mennonite Encylopedia_ website. http://www.mhsc.ca/encyclopedia/cme.html Sam Steiner, Archivist at Conrad Grebel College, Waterloo, is adding new articles (many updated) to this site daily. Given that the funding for this site is Canadian, the Menn Ency articles on US congregations will be limited. However the historical articles on North American Mennonites generally, Anabaptist history, or on Russian, Prussian, villages, people, background to Mennonite names, etc. are all being added to this website. Moreover all the theological and cultural articles can be found here as well. This webpage is well worth examining before you go and spend over $400 US for the 5 volumes (note: the 5th vol contains 996 pages of updated and new articles published in 1990; the other 4 [original] volumes were written and published in the 1950s). The entire set is still worthwhile, but not for everyone! Arnold Neufeldt-Fast Kitchener, ON neufast@sentex.net
