Comment on Osiah Horst on Old Order Mennonites by Shawn Butchko.
Hi, this is Shawn, and I would really like a chance to win this book. I’m actually thinking about starting up a new Amish/Mennonite-type of group, here in Santa Cruz, California. I’m wondering if the Lord wants me to do this? I just came back from New Wilmington in November, because the Lord told me to return here. So, here I am. But lately, I’ve been getting information about starting a new group here. Even this morning, somebody told me the Bible says to start with 10 people. So anyway, I would really love to have one of these books. It would help me get started, I assume, if that’s what the Lord would have me do here. Plus, another thing is, I would love to find out more about how the Mennonites live. I’ve done alot of studying about the Amish the past couple of years or so, and I would like to find out more about Mennonites as well. Thanks. Shawn
