Another intriguing feature of the Amish is their aversion to evangelism. They have a long history of keeping non-members out and isolating themselves from modern life. As a result, it’s no surprise that the Amish refuse to recruit. Furthermore, the Amish’s most ardent supporters are unable to join the church.
