The English-language version of Strangers and Pilgrims, Volume II: How Mennonites are Changing Landscapes in Latin America, published by Die Mennonitische Post, was released in September 2018. The first volume of this series was published in 1987 and as Kennert Giesbrecht, the author of volume II and managing editor of the Post, notes in the foreword, the world of Low German Mennonites has expanded to almost four times its size since then, with approximately 160 colonies spread throughout the Americas today. Strangers and Pilgrims, Volume II provides an update on the history and life of Mennonites in the established colonies in countries like Mexico, Belize, Bolivia, and Paraguay. It also gives readers insights into the life of the newest Mennonite settlements in Argentina, Peru, Brazil, and Colombia, about which very little scholarship exist. Recognizing the need for a bilingual publication, Strangers and Pilgrims, Volume II was released in separate German- and English-language versions, both featuring full-colour photographs and maps that help to give shape and context to the history of these Mennonite communities. The Plett Foundation is a proud supporter of the Strangers and Pilgrims, Volume II project. The English-language book was awarded a Plett Foundation publication grant in 2017, which helped to fund its publishing, printing, and distribution costs.
