International Committee of Mennonite Brethren
- International Committee of Mennonite Brethren
The International Committee of Mennonite Brethren (ICOMB) was officially launched at the 1990 Mennonite World Conference in Winnipeg, Manitoba as a partnership of global Mennonite Brethren conferences.
ICOMB was originated by MBMS International in Curitiba, Brazil in 1988 as a framework for worldwide MB conferences to relate as peers rather than as mission churches under the structure of MBMS International.
In 2005, Victor Wall, president of the Paraguay-German Mennonite Brethren Conference, was chosen to be the first Executive Secretary of ICOMB.
