No, I am not Mennonite, but have had 2 periods of 6 months fellowshipping with the Mennonites here in Deloraine, so have gotten to know them quite well. Plus have also had an interest in the Anabaptist faith for about 15 years.
I really admire their focus and 'single-mindedness' but unfortunately it is not for me. I do often revisit them, if not in body then in spirit as I find it re-grounds me and refocuses me when the world intrudes too much and I get 'brain overload'. :)
How cute..... they will be on someone's Sunday roast menu...
ReplyDeleteYes! But in the meantime, they are living the good life :) xx

Don't hurry spring, and I'll try to not hurry fall. ;-) (although it has been so horribly humid this month - very tough)
ReplyDeleteI'm not looking forward to the spring/summer growth in the garden. I can't even keep up with it in winter :)) xx
