The Pembina Mennonite Fellowship in Morden, MB formally organized in 1974. The congregation originated through outreach of individuals in the Morden/Winkler area.

In 2014 the church was made up of four house groups that met all together once a month in a community center. There were no designated leaders and membership of the four house groups is reconfigured every two years by drawing names out of a hat. Members took turns hosting and leading Sunday mornings. While services tended to follow a Bible Study format, the host was free to be creative.

In 1985 there were 37 members; in 1995, 36; in 2000, 36. The congregation has been affiliated with the Conference of Mennonites in Manitoba and the Conference of Mennonites in Canada (1981-). The language of worship is English.

Box 374, Morden, MB, R6M 1A4. (204) 882-5849. Congregational chairperson Les Zacharias served in 1994 as a congregational leader.
