From the site:
We, the families and single residents of the Rocky Cape Christian Community, come from various parts of Australia (Tasmania, Queensland, and New South Wales) and lands overseas. Some of us grew up in Christian homes—some of us did not.
We form an Anabaptist (Hutterite) style community, baptising believers on confession of faith, holding our goods in common, and choosing non-violence as followers of Christ.

While we have close and direct links to other Anabaptist communities like ours, we seek fellowship with all serious believers—regardless of their background or credentials—that know Christ and follow him. We accept the baptism, church order, and witness of other groups beside our own.

A number of us at Rocky Cape belong to families that fled for their faith from Switzerland, Austria, and Germany during the 1500s. From there, we found our way through Eastern Europe to America and Australia. But this is only one detail of a much more involving story that began with . . .


BTW thought this thread ought to be resurrected
