Caption/Description
Four years ago, families of Mennonites moved from Pennsylvania to begin a new community. Their living style allowed them to adapt to rural Kentucky easily. The men are farmers and working their fields is 'a form of recreation'. Everything is done with a life of service to God most prominent. An abandoned farm house serves as their church.
