Amish Film Re-Do


Sunday we'll try again to gather with some Amish friends as we watch and discuss a 49-minute documentary entitled The Amish: How They Survive

Given the on-going national conversations about the complex intersections between religion and government, learning how the Amish traverse the issue of religious freedom is timely. In addition, the film explores why the Amish are thriving and provides an unprecedented look into the varied beliefs and lifestyles of the Amish. Much of the film's narration is provided by Amish people themselves (speaking off camera).

Discussion will be led by Neil and Karen. Our offering will be designated for the People/Plant Connection, and you are invited to bring more soup and other canned/boxed food for Project Dignidad.
