Description: and inside look at an amazing people who have chosen a different way.

Not a passing phenomena, while other utopian societies die, the Hutterites have grown in North America to 30,000 people, living in over 300 self-sufficient villages.

In the world, but not of the world: they are a society where faithfulness to Christ's teachings is more important than self advancement war world the comforts. By yielding themselves completely to the community, the Hutterites have rid themselves of poverty, homicide, and anxiety about the future.

An enigma... a curious paradox: although maintaining their medieval culture, the high-rise for over 1,000,000 acres of land in Canada and the US using the most advanced farm equipment, and even computers.

450 years of Christian communal living: surviving an incredible harassment from those around them, they have lived strict communal lives based on the teachings of the Bible. In their schools they continue to teach their children eternal values, in German, despite government regulation of education. - from box
