My Amish neighbors watched part 1 with me. We shop his store. I told her I plan to continue shopping there. She said she will gladly shop there. I am hoping this opens a door to Christ for them.
I wish I lived there. I would drive many miles to support and shop their store!
God bless you all
Thank you for supporting this precious family. I want to also, but live on the West Coast.
This is the sweetest Amish family. I truly pray God's blessings upon them! They are very brave to tell their story.
Leonard and Dona I believe but was their last name mentioned?
Another couple rescued out of the Cult of the Quiet People. Praise God.
I am from a family of 12 All but 3 of us children plus my parents were shunned 8 months ago because we were visiting other amish communities for church. We were trying to escape without getting shunned....it didn't work so we are trying to follow scripture as we are free now to do so.
I have to say, the irony of your last sentence did not escape me! God bless you and your family.❤
prayers... Jesus loves and died for everyone. I am born a Jew and we had the same problem following your own Rabbi who disagreed with other rabbis which made only your sect right. If you get shunned for doing what another Amish group allows and damned to hell. then we are not saved by Jesus grace but by our leaders ideas. I have come to Jesus as my forgiver and best friend in a relationship. It is called amazing grace. thanks
Thank you for sharing your testimony. I was raised in Amish church similar to yours. I was also baptized into the Amish church at the age of 18.
Many years later and after becoming a born again Christian God convicted me that my identity is no longer with the Amish church but with Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. So I was baptized again making a public statement that my identity is now with Jesus my Savior! Many blessings to you and your family!
Praise God!! Thank you for sharing! 💞✝️
My husband, Steve, and I shop their store and have for many years. We have always had a love for Leonard and his family, we will continue to pray for them both and God will use them for His Glory. We will also pray for the Amish community that the "blinders will be lifted off of them and they will come to the true wisdom and knowledge of Christ. That they will walk in the true light and love of Christ Jesus.
There's is a flaw in the Amish practice of shunning. By condemning Leonard and Dora Mae to Satan, the Elders broke God's Law. No man can condemn a child of God to the flames of hell, only God himself can do that. Justice and judgement are the Lord's, on Earth and in Heaven.
Keep the Faith for it is eternal, the deeds of man are but dust.
Then why is the church so ignorant?
Leonard and Dora those are man made laws,not God's laws. Who are they to condem you to satan. You are following God's laws. They are not. I cannot help thinking that perhaps they are the ones who have satan amongst them already. Sending you lots of love❤
I am reminded of the scripture that speaks of laying aside the commandments of GOD in order to keep the traditions of man. Praying for the Amish leaders that the scales fall from their eyes.
The scripture is Mark 7:8.
1 Corinthians 5 hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.
Matthew 12:30
“Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters.
Matthew 16:19
I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”
I am taking a trip to MIssouri late June, and will definitely go out of my way to visit this store and support their beautiful and truthful spirit in Christ. Your story is appreciated and honored.
I would love to go to their store and shop. where is it?
@@chapmans84 Windsor, MO
@@chapmans84You can find the store name and address in the video description.
I feel badly about these dear people losing friends and neighbors who they love, but rejoice that they have gained so much more than they have lost. They demonstrate so much forgiveness and grace, and are now free to be all that God has called them to be - No more man made control, no more ignorant rules, no more harassment, no more insults, no more group-think. “”He (or she) whom the Son sets free is free indeed!”
Where is their store in Missouri?
You can't lose what you never had, but you will never lose christ our saviour🙏
I watched part 1 and am waiting very eagerly for the second part. I went to school with Dora Mae and her siblings way back in the day, in the little Sunny Side school building. One of her sisters was on my grade. I am overjoyed to see that Leonard and Dora Mae have searched and found the Lord and freedom and I hope and pray that revival would sweep through that church and many more would be saved!
Thank you for sharing Leonard and Dora Mae’s story. Interesting and inspiring. It would be interesting also to see a follow-up story in a couple years. Will pray for them in this new life. And thank you, David, for the work you are doing in sharing these life-changing stories.
Lovely couple,very open! Thanks for sharing!!
Please write a book so we can learn from your experiences 🙏
Amen to that.
God bless this couple
Since the Amish can't be on camera he should keep the horses and start his own UA-cam channel showing how the Amish live and do things. It was very interesting seeing her iron. How do they wash clothes, hang clothes, cook etc. That would be a great income and a great way to share the Gospel!
I agree with you tawra! I believe the content they can provide UA-cam would blow up and be successful:)
Yes, especially sharing the Truth with the Amish using their secret phones!
"Living Amish Free in Christ" or "Amish Living Authentic in Christ"
I would be interested to learn more too.
Yes ! Start a u tube channel. People would love it. Seeing and learning all the ways of doing things would be so interesting 😮
Bless her heart, I hope she gets a new sewing machine and makes dresses with any size pleats she likes
Amen 🙏 I agree
If is lived near her I would give her my sewing machine it’s fairly new this is heartbreaking 💔 someone would treat her in this manner over and over again for the same thing sounds like “ Jealousy “
Amen to that!
It's heartwarmng to see this couple start to think for themselves. The Amish way is so legalistic. I love how hopeful and genuine this couple is.
Legalistic and dogmatic
@@lauramonahan9343 I am currently reading "No Nonsense Spirituality" by Britt Hartley and finding it not only illluminating but also helpful in my own journey of deconstruction
So legalistic. I would go crazy if anyone hounded me over measurements of my clothes. It’s so sad. God bless these people. May the Lord’s grace spread through these churches.
Dora said: it had to sink in. Yes, that is the way the Holy Spirit works. He is very patient with each of us and He leads us at our own speed. `reading His Word daily and really REALLY listening to him. That is what God wants from us. I am fascinated by the awakening of these two precious people to the Word of God. May I be that bold when persecution comes my way! Bless them, Father and keep leading them to you.
Praise the Lord! 🙏 We rejoice greatly to see people come to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, especially from our people the amish. We got shunned 2years ago for attending Bible studies. God bless them and their family! We'll be praying for them! 🙏❤
Amish are pharasies
This couple seem to have such warm, loving hearts. Would love to have neighbors like them. If they have mail order, would even buy from their store.
Such a good idea! If thry don't already, maybe they will read your coment and start. ❤
Beautiful people!
My son is married to a lovely wife her parents left the Amish community when they turned 18 .
She is a lovely mom and a delightful person!
So blessed to have her as my daughter- in- law!
I lived in the Amish community for a year or so and was a driver for them.(Sugar creek OH area)Baltic to be specific
Interesting time in my life.
Glad you two found Jesus to be real and enjoy the freedom He gives us!
Dora Mae is so utterly genuine. I find her refreshing beyond words. What a precious sister in Christ!
A lot of tears, grief, and suffering for those who become separated from family and friends….Oh Lord, break the chains of bondage and fear among the Amish, by your death, burial, and resurrection! Replace their many rules and fears of hell for faith in You!
The Amish made an attempt to kidnap and institutionalize me in an unlicensed Amish mental healthcare facility because of my faith in Jesus. Thankfully the police intervened and God delivered me out of a life of living in constant fear of man on that day!
Horrendous
Similar experience from this shunned Beachy.
@LC-ie2ux
THANK YOU, JESUS, for setting you free like You did me!
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed. John 8:36
Why are they against Jesus and his teachings I don't get it
@nightskyabc
The strict Amish communities, which are the majority, are very fearful that if you talk about Jesus and His Word, that you will probably not remain faithful to their way of life, and they are also fearful that others will become persuaded in believing in Jesus as well. Their focus is so external and on outside appearances that they miss the internal or understanding of eternal life. They believe because they are living off the land, dressing modestly, attending services, etc. that they have reached the goal. Those Amish who are not born again, live in fear that you will very likely not make it to Heaven if you leave, and so they distance themselves through shunning those who leave.
David -- You do an excellent job of "bringing them out," engaging with them, yet letting them express themselves. Very skillfully done!
Agree!
her home is so perfectly arrayed. balance and clean lines. her design of simplicity creates a home of harmonious beauty.
Beautiful Home 🏡 and Family
I would just love to have a home like 👍 yours it's so down to earth
if I lived closer I'd always ship.thier store ...agree with other comments ...KEEP HORSE....start utube channel ......don't give up a great horse.....nor ur buggy.....God bless ....n protect
@@maryannknox7158Yes I agree, it’s a beautiful home
The patience of this lady. Legalism is so wicked and hurtful.
This community sounds more like a strict HOA than a church shining for Jesus. Thank you for your work encouraging people choosing the Bible as #1 as they go through a dark time of being cast out.
Profound statement "where can you find the word amish in the Bible"... great interview. Thank you for your willingness to share.
My hubby drives a crew of Amish brothers for work each day. He preaches to them all the time. We pray someday god opens their hearts like he has yours! God bless your family
My wife just looked at this. She said, "I have shopped in his store." If we get back into the area, we will definitely stop by. You are good people.
I hope they maintain what they love in their culture and feel joy of what they let go. Praying for them
I can believe no loving God would want families to be torn apart.
I agree unless abuse is happening
I call this being bullied and on purpose picking and choosing Dora ….I am so so sorry 😢 you’ve gone through this when you’re such a beautiful Soul ….Jesus doesn’t care about the size of your pleats of your skirt all Jesus cares about is your Heart ♥️ and Soul and putting The Lord first
I’ve been shunned before but not as an Amish person. I have compassion for you. It’s damaging to one’s soul.
I grew up in one of the largest communities of Amish and Mennonites in Lancaster, Pa, and they have been a big part of my life all my life. I truly love them. There are a lot of beautiful things about the Amish and Mennonite way of life. Being independent and not needing the modern world is a freedom most can't understand. Having large, loving families and tight knit communities that will step in to help one another is a beautiful thing. Knowing how to work, and how to do for yourself is a wonderful thing. Putting those things above God's law and God's salvation is not a beautiful thing. It is a truly ugly thing. It destroys people. It destroys their eternity. There is no reason why people need to be thrown out of the community over stuff like this. I'm praying for a revival among the Amish that would destroy this idolatry without destroying their community and their way of life. Maybe you all will lead your community to Christ.
FYI, Dora, Elmer's glue can be your friend for making accurate seams, not that you need it now. You can glue those pleats down with Elmer's glue, set it with an iron, sew over it, and wash the glue out. That is how I finally learned to make shirt collars accurately. That poem is Mother Theresa's Do it Anyway.
I regret so much that I no longer have a driving horse or work horses, and I was never Amish or Mennonite. I wish I had never let them go. There are plenty of "English" farmers out there who farm with horses too.
Your neighbors are cutting off their noses to spite their faces by not shopping at your store. They will have a long drive to get groceries. That may be the breaking point for some of them. If you keep running that store and don't sell it and leave, more than a few might start speaking up about the sheer lunacy of having to drive miles to buy food.
I wish I were close enough to be a support and a friend to you through this.
We must judge sin but we are commanded not to judge others for only Christ knows the heart and is our judge. We must recognize and evil else how are we to avoid it. The Lord used the parable of the mote and beam in our eyes.
@@anitahill9113 This is a very modern way of looking at things, but not very scriptural. If you look up the word judge in the dictionary, it has a half page of definitions and the Bible uses all of them. We are commanded to judge with righteous judgement (John 7:24). Those words are straight from the mouth of Jesus, and they tell us to be discerning. God is unchanging and unchangeable, therefore scripture cannot be contradictory. If our interpretation makes it contradictory, we have to remember God's nature and go back and try again. Jesus commands us to judge fruit. We aren't to just judge someone as being saved because they say so: Jesus tells us that we know his followers by their fruit. Again, we must be discerning. Just because someone is nice, that doesn't mean they are saved, and judging them so could leave them in a lost state. What is forbidden to us is judging someone's ultimate destination. (Christ can save to the uttermost Heb. 7:25), and to judge ourselves better than others (Phil. 2 3-5). The latter is a sin of pride. If our theology is on straight, we know ourselves to be sinners. We know that salvation isn't open to the righteous. (Luke 5:32) If we have been to the cross and confessed all our sins, we know we aren't better than someone else, and will very likely esteem ourselves, with Paul, as the worst of sinners. Nevertheless, even though I am the worst of sinners, I know that God loves me enough to come and die for me. Its a weird dichotomy that might best be understood the way a parent can see their child's bad behavior and need to discipline them, but can still love them enough to die for them. All that being said, how can we reach others with the Gospel if we don't judge? And if there any greater hatred than not caring if someone is soundly saved?
I pat this couple on the back for standing up for themselves.Here in ohio there is alot of young people that feel like Leonard and Dora Mae.Alot of young people are breaking away.Its amazing how a group of older men want to rule whole communities.There is alot of things the amish here in ohio do and they are not shunned.This is 2024,not 1524
@@user-mv4bm6qz4c There is nothing wrong with living a simple lifestyle. Many non-Amish people choose to do so as well. What is wrong is putting any law above God's law. That is Pharisiacal. They are tying up burdens to place on the backs of others that they are unwilling to carry themselves.
Leonard and Dora. I am so sorry how poorly you are being treated. You are so right in all you are standing for. These ministers who have shunned you and who are requiring others to shun you are deceived and are deceiving all their followers . What they are doing is so wrong. Be thankful that God has opened your eyes to the truth of His word and the truth is setting you free. God is using you both to be a witness to your neighbors and the world. God is with you. Remember, Jesus was shunned too. Jesus is making himself real to you both. He is exposing the truth about how these church leaders are manipulating God's word just as the serpant manipulated Eve into sinning. There are consequences for their behavior, they will not be able to hide from God and His wrath. God Bless you both. Trust that you are putting God's word into action and exposing the lies being fed to the Amish community.
I understand what Dora is saying, losing her family matters to her. So, the Lord had to give Dora her own word for what was and is taking place for her. Thanks to Dora for taking the time to explain what went on for her during this experience.
I think they should put a sign on their store. "Love thy neighbor as thyself"...
They are such a wonderful example of Christian love.
I noticed that Amish members who really study the bible will have difficulty staying Amish.
Quite an accurate observation
We have shopped their store gor years and will continue too do so. Leonard and his wife are a joy to be around. May god continue to bless this family
I’m in Missouri, can you tell me where the store is?
@@loriorrick7313 Windsor, MO
My wife and her family are from Windsor. And we always go to their store when visiting. And will continue to do so. Enjoyed the videos and support them in the future. Gonna miss the apple butter from Millers.
We had plans on purchasing a hog from the Miller's again... we will miss that as well.
I watched Part 1 and became so sorrowful over the pain produced by Leadership NOT trusting Jesus only. I always thought the Amish were Christians. I pray for the JOY of the Lord to return for this couple and many others trapped in the slavery of pleasing man. It is a fool's errand.
Such a lovely and respectful marriage. May peace, love, and truth continue to prevail. There are so many good things about the Amish; praying you can keep and share all of those good things and find community for your family.
I have loved this interview. I really love the message she shared about letting go of the past and even the meaningful things and people in the past, so we can cling more to Jesus with our strength. It is painful and is a message I needed today. !!!
It was incredible to hear her share that!!
Awesome!!! Thanks for your story, Leonard! We pray more Amish and Mennonites will truly become born again and saved in Jesus!
What beautiful Children of God! Thank you for sharing their story, the courage to be free from oppression and to walk in truth. Bless your hearts.
Exactly what i felt when i was Catholic.....more their doctrine. Then Lutheran. Now going to a Bible based NON DENOMINATIONAL church. Love it, love it, love it!
This story is movie-worthy. ❤
this lady is a walking talkimg testimony. im so inspired by her. beautiful woman. i love these two. praise God.
Heartbreaking 💔 that any Christian would verbally abuse and bully people of your church community over nonsensical nonsense
Thoroughly enjoyed it..have a similar church experience but as a graduate immigrant woman having odds-on fail in entering ministry as a direct result of discrimination, incompetence, nepotism, cronyism, and sexism. Alot, just returned from hospital admission from illness due to the extreme pressure of being part of a high-stakes, grace-less treatment by a church with my 2¼ years preparation deemed ' without evidence of a 'call' '. This video thoroughly touched me, as the denomination is protestant, and it seems we have left the faith of Hebrews 11 verse 1. God's richest blessings on you both!
To God be the glory in the name of Jesus Christ. We fight not against flesh and blood but against powers and principalities...Ephesians 6 vs 12.
I like to see freedom in Christ- We want to take His yoke upon our shoulders. His yoke is easy and His burden is light.
Romans 1:8:1 - 1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
The family are Children of God. God bless them in all they do to His Glory! Thanks sharing this insightful interview. And praise the Lord for families that stand up for the Word of God!
I love how he puts his arm around her in a protective manner. And how forgiving they are.
Praying for them. I live in this area and plan to stop by if I get a chance. God bless you all!!!
Send your friends, too!! They need the loving support of the Christian family.
@@Learningthetruth7 I sure will!!!
God has you in the palm of His hands. Will continue to pray for you.
Praying for you from Australia. We are one people in the Kingdom of our Lord Jesus. May the heavenly kingdom come soon where we will not even remember what Amish means. We will all eat at one table and the last will be served first. Come soon Lord Jesus, may your peace fill the hearts of those the world rejects.
What a sweet and beautiful GODLY couple. This was so encouraging! Thank you for these videos!!
GOD BLESS YOU Leonard and Dora Mae!!!
🤲💗
I love how Dora Mae shared her experience with God over family or following Jesus. I had a similar experience under different circumstances. Mine left me with complete peace as well.
Some incredible insights to the Amish community I grew up around. I lived among them, worked with them, and even had the opportunity to live with a family for a week. Even with that, I had no idea about the complexities of what I thought were just simple hard working people. This is a man and wife that I had interacted with while visiting the store and while I never got the friendly vibe they are giving off here, I still think it’s a shame that so many are impacted because this couple chose to stand up for another.
Bless both of you. This whole thing has saved you from a eternal death. The Lord works in mysterious ways. Stay strong. God is in control!
I was raised in a partly Mennonite community...thankfully our leader opened up to help us not take the old ways so seriously.
After all that...we are all so free to let Jesus Christ Himself love us so we can love in service to all.
Thank you for yer courage for true freedom.
Leonard and Dora are precious. One of my favorite verses is Galations 2:20. You both have made the right decision. Leonard, the smile on your face is the freedom and the grace only Christ can give! It is the joy from being truly saved! May God bless you and keep you! I wish I could come and meet you two! ❤
So sad to think the focus is more on measuring pleats, hems, brims, etc than souls😮😢
I will be patronizing there store . They seem like genuine nice folks.
I'm so sorry for the trauma, I am glad you have started healing.
God bless you all.
I have watched many documentaries and this one is very very well done 👍 We have a lot of Amish families around my rural area we're I live here in southwest Wisconsin. My wife and I shop at two of their stores very often we also use the services of the Amish to butcher our chicken flock of meat birds every year. The Amish we shop at the lady will talk with my wife but not so much with me. Just as her husband will talk to me but not so much with my wife. They are very kind and friendly. I also just subscribed once I knew you were a brother in Christ Jesus. And looked through your video content
They seem like two absolutely lovely people. I wish them the very best on their journey. ❤
This brings to mind Genesis 50:20. But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive. Through this experience you are now alive in Christ! Amen and amen! May more Amish people decide to take the path you have chosen!
I am so glad that you CHOSE TO OBEY GOD rather than men! Praise God!
Obedience to God, is freedom from oppressive men.
I think it is called Christian Liberty.
Dora, your explanation of unloading the burden of hanging on to anything or anyone is so peaceful. I know that peace that passes all understanding or explanation! The LORD Jesus IS our peace.
Enjoyed the testimony of this couple, may the Lord bless them abundantly and others see their love for Jesus and be changed by it.
I noticed the purple shirt & good to hear explanation of that. While not Amish I know I would have rebelled at the rules/regulations. I grew up in Mennonite culture and while there were rules, in my home it was “what would others think if I did such & such?” So glad Jesus provides the free & abundant life. His grace overwhelms me.
I also enjoyed Part 1 and looking forward to Part 2. Your videos are an inspiration for me seeing the transformation of people after studying God’s word and their dedication to the Lord in spite of persecution.
I can really relate to your experience. My husband and i also are not Amish anymore. We stayed in the community where we were living for a few years until we could sell the farm and relocate. Changing to a different style of clothes is also a process, and i took it slow. My cap was the last thing to go, then i started wearing a scarf. I hope you find a community to join for the sake of your future and your children. God bless you!
Prayers for Leonard ,Dora Mae their family, friends and Amish communities.
Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God. So Christ himself, who IS the Word, has given us our hearing so we can receive faith...there is NOTHING better! The WORD is ALIVE. Amen Leonard! God bless you and your precious family.
Brother and Sister in Christ! I am so blessed for having watched your videos with Brother Alink. I am not Amish but I hear you and I see you. You are loved and appreciated. 1:22:49
Praying with you as you walk with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Sounds like you are walking closer and closer. Thankful to hear your story.
Wow! I must say, Leonard is very wise. I believe Jesus reigns in his life. He speaks the truth.
As an outsider, it is interesting to see elders of a church with what I assume is dwindling numbers kicking out faithful people that represent the future. At the very least, it is extremely short sighted. Im not sure if I feel happy or sad for these lovely people. Change is so hard, but not looking back is the way to go. Best of luck.😊
Praise the Lord for their salvations and delving into the Bible for themselves! Praying for them. ♥️🙏
DoraMae..what a beautiful sister in the Lord…inspiring…isn’t it so wonderful how God leads and supplies all we need to know Him & follow…appreciate your sharing your journey…He does bring beauty from ashes…wish you were my neighbor and friend…sending Love from N Ca…xo
I was privileged to listen to Dora Mae talk (after the 1:20 mark) of her Lord and Saviour . . . it's not religion, she has a relationship
Praise God - Leonard described the Gospel perfectly. I am thankful he understands and is at peace now with their path in life. May the perfect Peace of Jesus Christ bless Leonard, Dora and their children.
I will try to share these videos with my families amish friends, if they are willing. I pray for the amish and everyone else in falsehood. Praise God for saving these two out of this man made way and into true freedom in Christ. God Bless them and their families. I have been shunned from the family I grew up in because of my love of Jesus and for wanting to live the way He wants me to. It is really hard, and hurts a lot, but we have comfort from Christ. He will give us strength to get through this and everything we will have to go through until He returns.
Thankful that you are FREE!!
The dress incident. It's control. It's a test to see if you can be controlled by narcissist abuse.
It is absolutely horrible to have to be living under that scrutiny.
That is not love
"Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely."- Lord Acton. These authoritarian leaders aren't acting in the true teachings of Jesus.
Matthew 16:19
I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”
I was blessed listening to their testimony. The Lord will bless those who truly seek Him. I was raised with the Amish mindset and totally understand where Dora Sue is coming from. I also sew dresses with my ruler close by but only to make sure that my hems are even. 🙂
He would make a great minster. He knows the word so well!
My best friends are German Baptist so I understand the culture but what they're describing is the kind of mental manipulation that cults use.
Dear Leonard and Dora May, my wife and I watch your testimony and it encouraged us to read our Bible and seek His wisdom. It also reminded us that man is flawed and we should seek confirmation when we have any doubts. Thank you for your courage and may the Lord give you strength and discernment to grow His Kingdom. Many thanks to David Alink for sharing your story.
I am so sorry you have experienced this. The good part is that your story and your love of Jesus first brings so much honor to God.
It is very creepy that some dude is looking that closely at her clothes...when he is not her husband. What a creep.
I wish I lived there I would be shopping with him and his wife in a flat minute. God bless this family and I pray God's will be done in him and his families lives in Jesus name. Thank you for posting this.
What a story of Gods leading and you listened. God works behind the scenes in ways we can’t not see, and faith and trust carry us through.
Love this store!!! This past Christmas I put together a gift basket of items from Lilac Lane, their store. It was a huge hit!!! So just an idea for anyone looking for a gift/gift basket idea. They have everything from pastas, spices, candy, honey, soaps, cookware, baking supplies, essential oils, fresh produce, & more. A great place to shop & support local.
The condition they keep their property says loads on how well leonard and dora mae live their lives. Neat and considerate, god bless them.
What a thoughtful and hardworking husband and wife. Both very capable.
I prayed for you watching the video’s (part 1&2) Keep studying the Bible. I believe you are a wonderful testimony to your Amish friends and neighbors. God Bless You Both, also, your children. 💕🙏
Reminds me of living in a home owners' association community with over zealous narcissists nitpicking everything, controlling everyone
