Wayne and Lois Hochstetler  are members of Mennonite Church of Normal commissioned for international service  as worker care specialists for Mennonite Mission Network, based in London. From this geographic hub they travel to mission fields to encourage farflung workers, offering counseling, help with adjustments and listening ears. Through travel, and technology like inexpensive, Internet-based phone calls, they augment the worker support that exists at MMN's US-based offices—support that helps keep workers healthy enough to do God’s work in the world.

Christian Peacemaker Teams (CPT)   offers an organized, nonviolent alternative to war and other forms of lethal inter-group conflict. CPT provides organizational support to persons committed to faith-based nonviolent alternatives in situations where lethal conflict is an immediate reality or is supported by public policy. CPT seeks to enlist the response of the whole church in conscientious objection to war, and in the development of nonviolent institutions, skills and training for intervention in conflict situations.

Mennonite Disaster Service is a volunteer network through which various constituencies of the Anabaptist church can respond to those affected by disasters in Canada and the United States. While the main focus of MDS is on clean up, repair and rebuilding homes, this activity becomes a means of touching lives and helping people regain faith and wholeness.
