Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mennonite Yearbook and Directory, 1952, Vol. 43 In the passing of George M. Hostetler, the church lost another faithful leader. He served for eleven years as minister of the Holly Grove Mennonite Church, Westover, Md., and for over eighteen years as bishop. In July, 1914, he was ordained to the ministry at Oyster Point, Va., where he served the Providence Mennonite Church until September, 1922. He then moved to westover, -md., where he served the Holly Grove Mennonite Church with Amos Ogburn, Aaron Mast, and Roy Payne under the oversight of John S. Mast. On Sept. 17, 1933, he was ordained by John S. Mast to the office of bishop at Holly Grove, where he served until his death. He was born Dec. 2, 1883, near Allensville, Pa and died Dec. 22, 1951, at the Peninsula General Hospital, Salisbury, Md. He grew to manhood near West Liberty, Ohio. On Oct. 31, 1901, he had a very clear conversion experience. On Sept. 5, 1911, he married Mary Belle Smucker. They spent the first year of their married life at Hesston, Kans. Following this they spent about a year and a half at the Canton Mennonite Mission, Canton, Ohio. Ten children were born into the home. Brother George was of an unassuming disposition, always kind and considerate of others, a wise counselor, a sympathetic friend to all, and leader of his people. He never was so taken up with material things that he could not lay them aside to give counsel, sympathy, comfort, or whatever was needed to help others. His words and life gave courage and strength to many. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Introduction to Old Order and Conservative Mennonite Groups written by Stephen Scott and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells a story which until now has not been available in such an interesting and comprehensive form. What holds these people together? Why are they growing in number? Where do they live? The Old Order Mennonites are less well known than the Amish, but are similar in many beliefs and practices. Some Old Order Mennonites drive horses and buggies. Others use cars for transportation. Conservative Mennonite groups vary a great deal, but in general espouse strong faith and family life and believe that how they live should distinguish them from the larger society around them. The author details courtship and wedding practices, methods of worship, dress, transportation, and vocation. Never before has there been such an inside account of these people and their lives. The author spent years conferring and interviewing members of the various groups, trying to portray their history and their story in a fair and accurate manner. An enjoyable, educational, inspiring book.

Download or read book Peaceful Peoples written by Bruce D. Bonta and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 1993-12-01 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peaceful peoples are societies that have developed harmonious social structures which allow them to get along with each other, and with outsiders, without violence. Most of these peoples foster a spirit of cooperation rather than competition, promote sharing rather than glorifying greed, and live in harmony with the earth as well as with other people. Perhaps most importantly, they believe that peacefulness is the defining characteristic of their humanity. Some of the peoples included in the book are from the Western tradition such as the Amish, Hutterites, Mennonites, Quakers, and Tristan Islanders; from South America, the Piaroa; from Africa, the Fipa; from South Asia, the Paliyan, Malapandaram, and Nayaka; from Southeast Asia, the Semai, Chewong, and Buid; and from Micronesia, the Ifaluk. This selected bibliography includes annotated references to books, articles, and other English-language publications that provide significant information about a peaceful society. The author has combed the literature of fields such as anthropology, psychology, sociology, history, and religious studies for appropriate works, with a cutoff date of 1992. Scholars and peace activists who are interested in societies that foster peacefulness have difficulty finding references to the literature. Numerous indexes and abstracts do not include subject headings such as "peaceful peoples." Furthermore, indexing services often do not cover chapters in edited volumes, an important part of this literature. The book includes a very detailed name and subject index that provides access to the intriguing social psychological, and cultural similarities—and difference—existing among the peoples.
Download or read book Eastern Mennonite University written by Donald B. Kraybill and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2017-09-14 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this unique educational history, Donald B. Kraybill traces the sociocultural transformation of Eastern Mennonite University from a fledgling separatist school founded by white, rural, Germanic Mennonites into a world-engaged institution populated by many faith traditions, cultures, and nationalities. The founding of Eastern Mennonite School, later Eastern Mennonite University, in 1917 came at a pivotal time for the Mennonite community. Industrialization and scientific discovery were rapidly changing the world, and the increasing availability of secular education offered tempting alternatives that threatened the Mennonite way of life. In response, the Eastern Mennonites founded a school that would “uphold the principles of plainness and simplicity,” where youth could learn the Bible and develop skills that would help advance the church. In the latter half of the twentieth century, the university’s identity evolved from separatism to social engagement in the face of churning moral tides and accelerating technology. EMU now defines its mission in terms of service, peacebuilding, and community. Comprehensive and well told by a leading scholar of Anabaptist and Pietist studies, this social history of Eastern Mennonite University reveals how the school has mediated modernity while remaining consistently Mennonite. A must-have for anyone affiliated with EMU, it will appeal especially to sociologists and historians of Anabaptist and Pietist studies and higher education.
