These Americans Are Stuck in the 1800s (Not Amish)

Have you heard of the Mennonites? They are an offshoot of the Amish (a sub-sect of Christianity that originates in Switzerland in the 1800s). Today, the Mennonites live in small communities around the Midwest, USA, as well as in Belize, Bolivia and other countries in Latin America. What's fascianting is that they live a completely isolated life without the use of internet, TV or music -- something that is almost impossible to comprehend in today's society.
Thanks to my friends Zach and Janki, I was able to get secret access into a Mennonite community in northern Wisconsin, where I was able to learn about their bizarre way of life. I was even invited into one of their homes for a meal, and it was an out-of-body experience, to say the least!
What do you think about the Mennonites? Do you agree or disagree with their way of life? I'd love to hear from you in the comments below!

Just out of curiosity, have you ever heard of Mennonites before watching this video? I really enjoyed telling this story and this year, I plan to share more stories about the lesser known communities in the USA 🇺🇸

[@Flamableninja]

In a family guy episode, yes. When their car breaks down and they end up in an Amish community and Peter makes a joke saying something like "By Mennonites", but I always thought Mennonites and Amish were the same.

[@TexasHomesteaders]

Yep. There are some that live here. You see them in the stores. They shop at Walmart too. Tommy is from Ohio and used to the Amish so he was surprised to see the Mennonites out at the stores and restaurants here but we are used to it. I grew up Southern Baptist (my Dad was a Preacher) and we weren't allowed to wear pants or listen to secular music (think Duggars). When we flooded during hurricane Harvey, the Red Cross or FEMA were nowhere to be seen but the Mennonites showed up with plates of food and helped people clean up their flooded homes. Good people.

About 4 months ago I received an invite to a Thanksgiving singing from some mennonites and was then invited to the Lena mennonite church and I have to say it was the most beautiful religious experience I ever had!! I have only missed church once since then (going twice a week and a Bible study once a week. I've never felt closer to God than I do now! I encourage everyone to experience this like I have and the singing literally makes you feel closer to God!! Soooo beautiful. I would like to thank God for putting these people In my life!

Church feels good cause you are around people. Being around a group of people who care about you is the greatest boost to your mental health you can ever get. I personally am not a believer but I love church as an adult. Hated as a kid, But now that I have less friends and people to hang out with its a nice get away from the loneliness of life as an adult. BTW I don't lie to them, I let them know I'm not of faith or have any beliefs of god. But they don't mind mostly, there are a few who wont talk to me cause they think I'm a bad person for not "converting" to there faith and that's OK. I still show up and enjoy being around people and hearing there tales from the bible and so on. I wish I could believe, but every time I try I can't bring myself to TRULY have faith in a god even tho I wish I could.

I'm Catholic (our parish is tiny). The Mennonites are some of the best people you will ever meet. I'm in a wheelchair, and they have built me, not one, but TWO handicapped ramps. The first one was built when I still used a walker, 15 years ago. Last year, now that I use a wheelchair, they came back and built a new ramp that is not as steep. They did this for free!! I only had to buy the lumber. The ladies came to visit with me, while the men worked on the ramp. They brought food as well. One of the ladies has adopted two black inner city girls. They are amazing people who truly live their Christianity.

It's intriguing to me, as a Dutch just like Menno Simons used to be, that these stems of religion dating back to the 16th century are still in place today, with no following back in the homeland. I notice a lot of shared values of how my father used to grow up back in the 60's in rural Eastern Netherlands: large families, being self-sufficient, belief, hard working, making the best of the land and a sense of down-to-earthness and being welcome. It seems like these communities across the world preserved, in a way, what farmer life in the Netherlands used to be like back in the day.

yes I agree- it's so bizarre!

[@Arvidholders]

Ja, eigenlijk wel jammer dat we niet meer zo leven. Ik zou het wel mooi vinden om op een gemeenschapsachtige manier te leven van de natuur en voor elkaar zorgen, daar is echt wel behoefte aan in onze individuele cultuur. Dat gezegd hebbende denk ik niet dat ik het vol zou houden bij hun, het is veel te strict wat mij betreft. Als ze lossere leefregels hadden zou het perfect zijn en ik interpreteer spiritualiteit en geloof ook anders. Aan de andere kant snap ik heel goed de angst dat hun levensstijl op houd te bestaan als het te vrij wordt. Jaren 1960 in Twente was dus een beetje dit ja?

I am a Mennonite from Michigan. There are thousands of different kinds of Mennonite and I have yet to see someone realize that and not misrepresent them.

[@charlieplett]

Ha, same thoughts I have. I'm from Belize and we're almost more technologically advanced than the world around us.

[@hissyspit01]

Everyone thinks all Mennonites look alike, dress alike, talk alike, and so forth....We Mennos come in many flavors....lol

[@user-ok5vm2lw1i]

I'm from Sri Lanka. I have heard about Amish, Mormon and Mennonite people through books and the internet. Thanks for the video. Always cherished your channel.

I live in rural pa and we have the most fabulous Mennonite market that opened up. Very happy for the family

[@smk5122]

I stayed with a Mennonite family down in Filadelfia, Paraguay. Very different than the Mennonites in this video and Pennsylvania where I went to university. They used internet because I booked through AirBnB and were a bit more modern but super nice and hard working. It was a great experience.

[@Themanisred]

"Without the internet life can get pretty boring?' So until the advent of the internet, everybody was just bored throughout history? LO. L

[@patticarey9016]

I came here to say that. My exact thoughts.

[@Mr8dhawiil]

Indeed, the religion in the sight of Allah is Islam. And those who were given the Scripture did not differ except after knowledge had come to them - out of jealous animosity between themselves. And whoever disbelieves in the verses of Allah, then indeed, Allah is swift in [taking] account. (19)

[@ivyrose779]

Kinda yeah. Lol Imo, one of the things kids today miss out on is learning how to be bored.

[@jasmineturner157]

This was amazing thank you drew for the videos! I love binge watching your videos!! Even the ones I watched already

[@user-wv5fq8di2m]

Excellent video - Thanks!

[@willieexplore]

Great video, Drew. Really enjoyed this one. Always fascinating to see how other communities live.

[@drewbinsky]

More to come!

[@singintothewind]

I live in the middle of Vancouver Island and we have a good size Mennonite community here. Super quiet and generally nice people. I learned more about them in the 17 minutes of this video than in the 15 years I have lived here. So thanks so much Drew!

[@drewbinsky]

So interesting!

[@ronyrod6971]

Wow I really appreciated that video, what a beautiful place and people. Heaven is right there.

[@geonhuisblairsfun3339]

I love this video, they are great singers, workers, and family.

[@cindyk3076]

I have family in PA and there was a Mennonite family across the street from my grandma's house in a subdivision. I never interacted with them, just a wave if I caught one of them outside so I don't know about their life. Your video is very interesting and I think that as with the Amish, there are variations within the Mennonite religion. For example, the family I had seen had three children and didn't live on a farm. Thank you for continuing to showcase tribes of humanity that most of us have no knowledge of!

[@bendabutcha]

They seemed like the kindess peoplr you could ever meet. What a blessing for them to welcome you in

[@alfonsozarate2458]

To me this is a breath of fresh air and a “baseline” for what normal loving people behave and interact, no malice and just an amazing outlook on life. They are not perfect but do live in harmony with nature and a lot can be learned from them from how to raise your kids in a healthy way to how to not be dependent on society they are literally unaffected by global food shortages. Thank you Mennonites!!!

[@hopeforwonderingamish898]

Great video and very well done.

[@anxiouscucumber9]

I find this all a bit baffling, but they do seem very gentle and kind.. and that prayer when they sat down to eat, remembering there are hungry folks in the world and being thankful, really moved me for some reason ❤

[@caelanrileyfriesen3659]

I'm ethnically Mennonite! My family is from the Dutch Mennonite line. The Mennonites in this video are from the Swiss Mennonite line. But we still share a lot of the same beliefs, even if we now live different lifestyles.

[@neo3768]

Your side of menonite accept internets,

[@YiMuRen]

its so beautiful seeing the community and knowing their belief. I can clearly relate most of it to the islamic culture we have. In this age and time, I bet it's not easy to maintain such a close knit community. Wish them good luck.

[@somsimsem]

It doesnt even have stoning or beheadings, amazing.

[@YiMuRen]

@@somsimsem yeah and no worldwar1 or WW2 or occupying other territories which is worst than beheading. hitler wasn't a Muslim either. Learn facts first before lecturing others.

[@2.2.4.4]

Same feeling

Same here I would love to live like this city life very stressful it's very easy to disconnect with God in the city.

[@Turdfergusen382]

This is what it looks like when a community works together instead of be forced to compete with each other for somebody else profit motives.

[@georgianahudson5438]

Thanks!

[@ralfi8882]

Dear Drew. Thank you very much for this respectful video. Greetings from North Germany. In our Area we have some very liberal Mennonite Churches. Dieing churches, mostly old people. In other areas we have different groups. Many came frome Russia the last 40 years and they are very conservative. Others came von Paraguay. Best wishes and greetings.

[@lyndsay8793]

Great video! Maybe you could do a video on a Native American tribe? That would be super interesting too

[@user-ub7sy1pg4d]

One thing I love in all your religious visits is their main point of family love ❤️ It’s very beautiful and amazing

[@jeanlawson9133]

I commend them, God be with them all, I feel we would all be better to live in such a way.❤

How i wish I live like these people! One of the few groups of people that are still with sanity.

[@bengtal]

The community and self-sufficiency is lovely!!! 💖💚💙 Rock on Mennonites!!! Basically every day is full of togetherness, every night is a sleepover, and REAL food is being cultivated and crafted, lovingly prepared and shared. They definitely have some of the most important things fully enshrined and in living practice. What a great episode Drew!

[@Cutiepatutie888]

I live in Wisconsin, I’ve never heard of this place it seems very interesting I live north of Milwaukee thanks for teaching about your time here (GO TO WEST BEND PLEASE)

[@Flamableninja]

Another Drew Binsky banger! I'm in southern Wisconsin and honestly I had no idea northern WI had this population. I thought it was mostly Pennsylvania or Wyoming or some part of New England. Those shelves of pickled things has my mouth absolutely watering. You know those taste amazing. Anyway this community seems so nice and humble and I loved the video. Thanks for the awesome entertainment :D

[@drewbinsky]

Thanks for watching! Go badgers !

I’m from northern Illinois, never knew what Mennonite was until I moved to Arkansas. They are hardworking people, very quiet, and respectful.

[@paulbrown631]

Good morning, there is a group in Brodhead Wisconsin that you could visit their church if you were interested. It's called Pleasant View Mennonite Church. If you MapQuest it will show up. Have a blessed day!

[@paulbrown631]

PS their church service starts at 10:00 a.m. on Sundays. If you just showed up I can pretty much guarantee someone's going to ask you if you would like to come over for lunch and the afternoon for visiting.
