“In both their religion and their daily life, the Mennonites try to pattern themselves after the early Christians. Thus, the Amish do not believe in church buildings; nor do they favor baptism for anyone too young to decide for themselves whether they want to live by Christ’s teachings… For these devout people, running a home and making a living are second in importance only to the proper worship of God.”
