Prairie Perspectives: Hutterite Traditions and New Technology

In the fifth video of our Prairie Perspectives series, Ian Kleinsasser of explains how Hutterites at Crystal Spring Colony have constantly adopted new technologies to support community life.
Prairie Perspectives is a new exhibit at the Manitoba Museum that features videos from residents of our beautiful prairies, who tell of their experiences, and hope for the future. We will release a video from this 6-part collection every month.
Watch the Prairie Perspectives videos and learn more about the history, biodiversity, and stunning landscapes of Manitoba in the Prairies Gallery. Plan your visit, today: manitobamuseum.ca/visit/plan-...

Went to the colony just south of Claresholm (AB) and we were invited in for dinner! They gave us lots of bread and vegetables to take home and they didn't want any money for it! Very generous people!

[@PrairieDodgers]

I am Grateful to realize that our Precious Hutterite Communities are moving forward into the future, contributing and representing as examples along the way.

I find Hutterite life refreshing. Giselle Waldner's channel has enlightened me about the Hutterite life and how you put God first. I so enjoy the singing, never having to work alone, and worshiping together.

[@GailOwens]

GIselle lives in an independent colony. That is far more progressive.

@@GailOwensher colony is actually in very bad shape due to people going against the religion.

Dude, I think the Hutterite lifestyle is amazing!
With love from California 🤙

My great grandmother was a Hutterite. I'm so proud to be part descended from these wonderful people.

[@andyw.8359]

I LOVE the Crystal Spring community 💛

[@ellenbergen5872]

They certainly are special people ❤

[@borismoris3435]

​@@ellenbergen5872 Special people? Are you sure? Do you know them? When I visited the Crystal Spring community, their young people already departed a lot from the Hutterite tradition and loved the world in many ways, and their elder Edie Kleinsasser was a drunkard. He told me, "Too much Christianity is not good."

I've seen Mennonites in Mexico and they do amazing things with the land and very little resources it's pretty cool.

Thank you for the video so many people draw lines when someone is not like themselves.

[@mercykaruchia]

[@glenhelmuth738]

1:34 where, except in the Vatican, does it say to fold your hands when you pray?

[@den8863]

It is natural. Just as you smile when you are happy or raise your hands in the air when you cheer.

[@markusmcadams8723]

its more so for the consentration aspect, you fold your hands together so that their not doing something else or fooling around.

[@rickhatesmisleadia7101]

Giselle Walder's is on my favs list. She is so great and her colony is awesome. I listen to their choirs sing hymns....one word...awesome! She is so sweet and a pleasure to watch and listen too

[@nox5555]

SO they act like nrorthern germans, in contrast to the southern german amish?

[@brockvipond]

I don’t mind you guys being Hunter rights, but can you at least pay taxes like the rest of us?

[@brockvipond]

@@eringrace327 how did you reply you can’t have phones

[@davehofer3629]

What makes you think they don't..
They're paying more taxes
then any other society.
