Amish
The Amish (/ˈɑːmɪʃ/; Pennsylvania Dutch: Amisch, German: Amische) are a group of traditionalist Christian church fellowships, closely related to but distinct from Mennonite churches, with whom they share Swiss Anabaptist origins. The Amish are known for simple living, plain dress, and reluctance to adopt many conveniences of modern technology. The history of the Amish church began with a schism in Switzerland within a group of Swiss and Alsatian Anabaptists in 1693 led by Jakob Ammann. Those who followed Ammann became known as Amish.

I'm not a poet, Miriam.
But if I were, I'd write on a red heart
Words to describe my love for you.
You are the reason Gotte brought us to live
Here among these rich valleys and hills.
Will you share our life?
Will you be my bride?
I can offer you days filled with Geace
And nights of love and peace.
If you share my love,
Marry me and share our humble home,
Along the banks of Pebble Creek.
