Der Bote was first published 16 January 1924 as Der Mennonitische Immigrantenbote by Dietrich H. Epp at Rosthern, Saskatchewan,[1] to serve as a point of contact for German-speaking Russian Mennonites immigrating to Canada after World War I.
In 1947, Der Bote merged with Christlicher Bundesbote and became the weekly paper for the General Conference Mennonite Church.
[3] By 1950, circulation was 4500, of which 1000 were distributed in Europe and South America as a service to immigrants.
[4] On 30 March 2008 the newspaper closed down and ceased publication due to declining readership.
