About the same number of Vermonters who fall off their roofs while raking them.

#16 How many Amish fall off a roof during a barn raising?....
Read a Lancaster, PA newspaper:
In our little town in Idaho, we now have about 15-families.
They opened a really great country store and deli located about 10-miles from town...I never thought it could make it, but it is packed every day.
Really nice, friendly folks...hard working and welcome neighbors.
The delegation, which included four Amish men from Ohio and two from Indiana, are the first Amish to be hosted in the White House by a U.S. president, the Washington Times reported.None from Pennsylvania.
So true! those were scary years! don’t forget Israel also! He did all he can to undermind Israel, their safety and existence for 8 years(Gen. 12:1-3). My personal belief is that America is still here today and not in the ash-heap is because of Trump’s great support for the nation of Israel!

Most Amish I know have people outside their tradition thT they pay to transport them over long distances.... often mennonites, but sometimes just local Christians or work acquaintences
My experience as well... if it’s work related ok, if it’s personal no go ... at least that’s how I understood it. Ownership for convenience was a no sale.
Wow, that’s super close to where I grew up in Lyons (Green county) and Elnora (Daviess). After years I’m close to a community again in NE Ohio and able to enjoy the little things again. Still not quite the same as home, but close enough.
The Amish and most conservative Anabaptists like Old Order Mennonites do not vote as a rule. The foundation of their world view is based on a two kingdom theology which sees their primary allegiance to the Kingdom of God. Supporting politicians who may send men into war and who look at other human beings as objects of revenge would never fit into their practices as followers of Jesus Christ. So it is very unusual to see Amish people making statements about politics. However, I think they may be worried about retaining religious rights if a new, liberal Administration should infiltrate the White House, so perhaps they want to show particularly VP Pence that they appreciate the President’s stance on religious freedom.
