I Was Roman Catholic. Then I Became Amish. - Elizabeth Vendley

[@robertgortoniii9583]

I have found the older I get a better understanding of the Catholic Church teachings and I would never leave the Catholic Church. And, I live and grew up in the simple Amish way of life that I love and have stayed Catholic!!

[@j2muw667]

I’d prefer to remain a Catholic (Latin preferred) living simply as the Amish do. I’m a child born in the 60’s and always felt I was missing something. So I kept looking until I found Catholic Answers to help out. And then continued seeking and finding lives of saints (st John Bosco, Joan of arc, Catherine of Siena, Therese of Lisoux.. and listening to more old school traditional teachings and it’s all become more clear!

J2muw667 Yes, as others said, yours is a beautiful testimony. Catholic Answers and his podcast, Shameless Popery, are wonderful. There are many beautiful teachings in the Catholic faith, such as the Theology of the Body teachings on human nature, marriage, becoming parents. The sacraments, the Eucharist, the Blessed Sacrament all bring a unique presence of Christ. These days, Bible studies are available. Such as Jeff Cavins and Fr. Michael Scmidt, the Bible in a year, with Ascension Press and EWTN, or Tim Gray with Formed are two contemporary studies on-line. There are others. It is important to have a Catholic Bible study as it is based on the original understandings and the fulness of the sacraments. It is possible to live a simple, community life within local Catholic parishes. I like the organic authenticity and the direct simplicity of original Catholic doctrine.

What an amazing story, the Lord is so loving and faithful! It was very encouraging to me when she said that God will open the doors to our path, and that we ourselves don’t need to take on that struggle alone. I am myself a follower of Christ since just a few years back, and I have noticed how important it actually is to stay in the word and keep a connection with God daily. I live in Sweden and we don’t have any churches (as far as I know) that are like the Anabaptists in the US, and still, the Lord has lead me on a journey that is slowly forming me into a Christian that more resembles a Mennonite than a Lutheran or Baptist. So far, my daughter has also come to the faith, praise be to God, and we are waiting and praying for my husband and my son to follow. Who knows where the Lord will lead us in the future, and listening to the sister’s testimony I’m even more exited to see what is yet to come.

[@earlsiebold536]

I can relate to her Spiritual quest. I was raised in a large protestant church in Canada and became a nominal member insofar as I had no idea what Christianity was beyond going to church and supporting socialist causes. Then one day I was walking across an open field when I fell on my knees and met the Lord. My life and the life of my wife and children was changed at that moment as I became Born Again. I left the church of my youth seeking to find out what that Person was that I met was all about. We started to go to an evangelical church with Mennonite roots and were baptised by immersion in the local river. We began to develop spiritually. I asked and my wife felt compelled to cover her head full time. I felt compelled to grow a full beard. We moved from the small town we were living in and in the new town we went to the local Baptist church. Our first day there the pastor thought we were Mennonite. A few years later we moved to a Mennonite town and joined the Mennonite church. This particular church was more evangelical than anabaptist not that it really mattered to us. It was a nice church and we were welcomed into it. One day a lady politician knocked on our door and asked for our vote. I informed her that out of personal conviction we don't vote. She thought we were Old Order Mennonite. I had no idea such a group existed.

[@matildaentz2815]

Question? So I came out of a similar situation, a Hutterite colony. we basically have the same religious culture , Amish, and Mennonites but the Hutterites live in a community and have everything together. Nobody has his own car and the house belongs to the colony ,when we leave the church we cannot take the house alone. so we have to start out with renting a house, buying a car and groceries without money. So we were brought up in the colony believing that God put us in the colony for a reason that we have a chance for heaven, but all the rest of the world doesn’t even stand a chance to get to heaven. So leaving the colony and joining a church in the the outside world, these Christians , told us they have been praying for us for a long time that our eyes would be opened. So I am wearing the same clothes. These women are wearing.(but modest.) so what makes you think that your dress code makes you different than the Christians outside because they wear pants? God never stood out by his clothes. He stood out by his walk and talk, and that is what is supposed to make us different. so why is it that the man can wear all English clothing and the women are the ones standing out with a dress code?🙏🙏

[@mammaV61]

My preference for the way I dress is based on my choice. The conviction that it be modest comes from what the Holy Spirit does with the scriptures in my heart. But salvation is in Jesus Christ alone not our attire or church affiliation.

Mennonites are a Christian group who followed Menno Simons, in the 16th century. Simons was a Catholic priest in holland who studied the Bible and found the doctrine not in line with Scripture. He formed the Anabaptist movement, out of which some became known as Mennonites. They did not wear the clothing that the Amish and Hutterites did, thinking that they would win more for Christ by dressing in regular clothing. There are many Mennonites and Hutterites yet in Manitoba and other parts of the country and in the States. My family were Mennonites from Holland in 1760 and were asked by Catherine the Great to come to southern Russia as farmers. Dad and his family saw communism take over and left in 1926. Fascinating story and the bottom line is you must believe in the Lord Jesus Christ as God’s only begotten Son, that He came from Heaven as a baby and took our sin when He went to the cross and died for us. He rose again, ascended to Heaven and is coming back! Ask Him for forgiveness and make Him the Lord of your life! That’s the only way to Heaven, there is no other.

What scripture says you must wear specifically only a cape style dress? It's about obedience, and if you're just going to obey your authorities, why not obey the Catholics? You can pick your authority. Sure, you seemed like you had more in common with the anabaptists, canning and homesteading and such. Does that mean it's objectively the real church or does it mean your personalities fit with them in a non religious but social sense?

Catholic translation! Yikes lady, where do you think your Bible came from?

She was likely referring to a translation approved by the USCCB such as New American Bible, Revised Edition.

[@gwendolynnorton6329]

@@AnabaptistPerspectives well, I do understand that, but the implication was that the “Catholic “ translation is somehow inferior when the reality is that anytime another translation differs from the Catholic translation it has been deliberately changed to reflect a difference in doctrine preferred by those putting out the non Catholic translation. That’s clearly demonstrable not only linguistically but of course historically as well. Protestant scholars agree at this point. She wouldn’t have any Bible if it were not for the Catholic Church preserving western scholastics after the fall of Rome; including phonics and the alphabet, and for monks devoting their entire lives to meticulously writing down each page over hundreds of years. I don’t think she’s a bad person I know she’s my sister in Christ and God bless her. I just have so much difficulty understanding how someone can decide they like a different doctrine better and then try to find a way to make scripture support their ideas with total disregard for history.

​@@gwendolynnorton6329 I want to say I find all of that hilarious but I can't since it is such a serious matter. I have deeply studied the Roman Catholic religion & I came away completely disgusted & heavily soiled from it all. What got me is the fact that members of rhat Roman religion fail or refuse to look into it except for the vatican version & that is a doctrine all to itself of which you quoted almost drone like. To look 1st into the true origin date of that religion & the one y'all claim was my sign to go down the rabbit for well over a year. A catholic friend recommended what he termed as "church fathers" to read. Wow!! They did not read the way he quoted them & I could see the cut & pasting he & his fellow members use. A true study & to see the big picture of them was to see today with all the various opinions & cult practices. I can see a hundred years from now the Romans will apply Benny Hinn, Copeland & Olsteen as church fathers. It was a time for sure without the Inspired Word that could only be canonized by GOD using mere men as HIS tools only later to have prideful men claim they gathered & assembled it in order to down play & down grade it, truly satanic led. One has to really down play the Power of the FATHER. Well, I seen for myself why services were in Latin in non Latin countries in the 70's, I understood why the Roman Religion threatened death once again to those who dare had a copy of the Word or read it. We know why it was the RCC who did not encourage or teach people how to read but those you term as Protestants. You talk of monks that copied the Word down for us??? What manuscripts & writings did they use? We will never forget as so the rcc has admitted the thousands of forgeries it put out & continuedvwith the jesuits which is a dirty long study of its own. Manuscripts such as Sinaticus & Vaticanus is another deep study along with those that were in cahoots with the vatican. I can only say " WOW!" Looking into to each claim was greasy beyond measure starting from it's so called vicars of Christ. Oh the sexual immorality & deviance they were involved into yet this was what y'all vall the "mother church". I couldn't see my GOD or our only Mediator in that Then the massive murder campaign for centuries against True Saints of GOD that refused to submit to a new religion or a religious world emporer. Yes, take note, these were the TRUE original PROTESTANTS that the gates of hell could not prevail against - the true church - the Body of Christ which was founded on Peter's confession in Matt 16 of which most of your church fathers absolutely agreed but that you fail to teach or talk about. But the progression of doctrines that y'all put together over the centuries really were my sign, I mean who does that???? We get persecuted as Solas Scriptura folks & it's a very beautiful thing because our doctrines are laid out in that alone. You try to make cases for Mary, Rosary, idols/statues, priests, pope's, pomp, Vatican paintings of saints with the sun god behind their heads, purgatory, continued sacrafice of Christ, works salvation which you redefine as not, praying to dead people, transubstantiation but it fails with true Word of GOD but that's OK with y'all. That rabbit hole I went down led to a septic tank which is why I am so grieved by such an evil deceitful religion that it disgusts me so. For those caught up in it who feel a need to practice religion to feel justified refuse to see it carry on even to this day with the large percentage of admitted homosexuality in the clergy, the continued & continued covered up & purposely forgotten pedifilia to your current pope? How can you justify this? Oh, well it's been around for 2,000 years. OK, Satan has been around for how long? Does that make him right???

​@@RonnieStout-s4y You have so much hatred and I pray that you will feel better. Im a convert to the Catholic Church and it has been the greatest thing in my life. The Catholic Church is the true Church founded by Christ himself who gave the keys to Peter. Your buddy Martin Luther took pages out of the Bible and wanted to add his own words with it. This lead to disagreements with Calvin, Zwingli and so many more Protestants. Which lead to sooo many denominations disagreeing with their doctrines. It still goes on in 2024🤣🤣 there's about 60,000 Protestant denominations with numbers adding every week, and their services are now pop concerts. That is why Protestants have no significant tradition. There's only 1 holy Catholic Church with rites in communion with them🇻🇦✝️, same with the Orthodox brothers☦️. Sacred Tradition, Sacred Scripture and Apostolic succession are the most important fundamentals in real Christianity. Protestants with no authority causes chaos and division. And you talk about the scandals, there's scandals everywhere. It's worse in your Protestant churches. There's always going to be bad apples trying to infiltrate institutions. So you have no excuse. The Eucharist, papal authority and confession are all there in the early Church. That is why more people are converting to traditional Christianity such as Catholic and Orthodox every year.

First and foremost we must all strive to be Christians. It does matter how we get there as long as the end of the journey is Heaven and Christ. Unfortunately, I know Amish, Mennonites, Catholics, Methodist ect that are into their culture rather than being a born again Christ loving Christian. Churches need to lead people to Christ. The way is narrow and the path very winding. The most beautiful part of Christian history is the first 300yrs. Primitive Christianity oh how beautiful. Then a tragic thing happened to this Jewish subgroup that had nonJews among them. The church became the official belief of the Roman Empire. Church leadership brought bad things in from pagan groups. This stuff is so deeply entrenched in the Catholic Church however Ive met true Christians in the Catholic Church. In fact Ive met Christians in strange places and disappointed in places you would think most would be Christian. The "True Chrch" is not one group! It is however "One People" those whose belief is that Christ is God, he came and died for us. That our lives should follow his life. A Catholic I respect a lot and think he is a true Christian Cardinal Dolan Ive never met him but he seems true. Ive also met very conservative Amish that get it.

@ I grew up in the largest Amish community on earth. I went to school with them worked with them worked for them and had Amish neighbors almost all of my life so I’ve seen almost all of what goes on or happens in their churches. If you want me to elaborate here are a just a few things I’ll point out that are very much alike in their church models. In the Amish groups the preachers are the authority on everything and I mean absolutely everything much like the priests in the catholic model, the bishop is the absolute unquestioned final boss much like the pope. Slight difference maybe in he will meet with other bishops if things get bad enough but whatever they decide is the absolute law for the church and not necessarily just one group but all groups of that particular sect of Amish. Similar to Catholic confession to a priest and being told to do penance or say Hail Marys to be made right again is how the amish also do things. An Amish caught in a sin by others or confessed will always go to a deacon, minister or bishop and they will excommunicate that member for a predetermined set amount of weeks or if the member leaves the Amish church they are excommunicated forever, simply up to the bishop usually. Some groups will treat an excommunicated member extremely rotten, so much so that they’re not allowed to sit and eat with other Amish who affiliate with or that said bishop has control over. I personally know a couple of people who aren’t allowed to go home to see their parents or if they do they are not allowed inside the house. It is such a hateful thing that I know one boy who left the Amish and his dad told him I would rather you would be dead. Not much different then hating someone enough to physically kill like the Catholic Church has been known to do. You asked I answered. Lots more is there that’s similar but this is long enough 😂
