Cities of Refuge
Stories from Anabaptist-Mennonite
History and Life
Harry Loewen
“Cities of Refuge is Harry Loewen’s most recent collection
of historical stories about Anabaptists and their quest for
permanence and security away from their homeland. Spanning
500 years of Anabaptist migration from 16th century Europe to
modern day Canada, Loewen’s stories centre on the Mennonite
struggle to find a sense of home in the world but not of the world.
Most of the stories deal with what lies at the heart of being
Mennonite, namely the faith that goes back to the
Anabaptists of the 16th century and that of their
Dutch leader Menno Simons, whose name they bear.”
