About
Doopsgezinde Geloofsopbouw en Solidariteit is a faith-based organisation based in Zwijndrecht, Netherlands working on religion & faith, education, peace & conflict.
Stichting Doopsgezinde Geloofsopbouw en Solidariteit (DGS) is a Dutch foundation formed by the 2023 merger of two Mennonite institutions. Its stated purpose is to facilitate the equipping of faith communities and individual believers in the Netherlands and abroad from a Mennonite background, serving the public interest. Its work includes retreats for men, women and couples, support for Mennonite congregations without a settled minister, Bible study materials, and faith education and communication projects. It also supports projects in Indonesia, Tanzania and Honduras, including a youth exchange with Indonesia, theological education for women in Tanzania and a project on the history of the Mennonite mission. The foundation publishes a discussion booklet series and a newsletter, and works with other Mennonite and church organisations.
