The photographs calm your spirit like a meditation.
This is a book to return to over and over again. I've opened it in the midst of a hectic, demanding day and the clean black and white images made me feel refreshed and hopeful. The photographs embody a kind of peace I think we all yearn for.

An eye-opening adventure of a grossly-misunderstood people!
My name is Simone.I live in Oklahoma.My family and I have evangelized and sang all over the U.S. and Canada.We met a colony of Hutterian Brethren through a church pastor whom lives in PincherCreek, Alberta,Canada, whom invited us to preached at his church.We became really goodfriends with the Hutterites.I have been communicating by phone and letterover 11 years with them.I found out from my Hutterite friend Janet Walterfrom Lamona, Wash. that this book was coming out.I have actual picturesfrom this book that I've had for years from past letters.The Hutteritepeople usually don't associate with outsiders, but, by extraordinaryhappenstance, if invited into their way of life, they will be yourfriends-for-life; always possessing a place in their hearts.TheHutterites live in colonies and are a hard-working, God-fearing, andfamily-focused people.I love the Hutterites . . . so will you!
