I'm kinda confused, PaladinGirl - I think I keep seeing your name but different faith icons? |

You do know that today's Baptists came out of the Church of England and not directly from churches of the Anabaptist tradition, don't you?

What is your area? I no longer attend an anabaptist church, but am very, very familiar with them and have many friends who are anabaptists. Shoot, I even went to a Mennonite college and seminary.

To find the Dunkard Brethren, of which there are only something like 900, you've gotta find yourself in Penn. or Ohio.

There is a small and I mean SMALL group of Dunkard Brethren here in Goshen, IN. Their youngest member is in her late 40s or early 50s. She was one of my nurses while I was fighting and recovering from pneumonia in ICU. I can't remember now exactly how many she said were members in her Dunkard Church, but I believe it is the 20 to 25 range. They DO have their own building at this left over from a more vibrant day. I fear that they will soon be non-existent.
