The Mennonite informs and challenges the Christian fellowship. Our readers are primarily people in Mennonite churches. The Mennonite looks for fresh, honest and creative poetry dealing with, at least tangentially, religious themes. Christian or Anabaptist thought need not be explicit in the poems. The best way to get a sense of the type of poetry we consider is to look at back issues of the magazine.
Writers are welcome to submit as many or few poems as they wish.
A cover letter is helpful but not necessary. We pay after publication.
