This booklet has been written to foster the development of a program of mutual aid among Mennonites. It assumes that the Mennonites in their various groups constitute Christian brotherhoods based upon a personal experience of faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and a loving fellowship in His body, the Church. On this foundation it advocates that the members of the Christian community, locally and as a whole, bear one another's economic burdens and so not only fulfill the law of Christ but strengthen the Brotherhood for its greater tasks of witnessing and building for Christ in the world of today. It is a conscious effort to challenge the secular trend of the times which threatens to denature the Christian community and make its members increasingly dependent upon the state and the commercial world with consequent transfer of loyalty from the church to other agencies.

It is a practice, commonly known as "mutual aid," that has distinguished Mennonites since their beginning -- the unconditional offer of aid and assistance when trouble strikes a member. But now that only comparatively few Mennonites are self-employed, and now that many women work outside their homes, these people are less able to respond in traditional ways. On top of that, the community is faced with a new varieties of "trouble" -- those brought on by dysfunctional families, medical advances that extend life but don't remove the need for care, urban crisis of poverty and race. A candid exploration of how a traditional practice has been adapted to the modern world, through well-told stories.
