I found this blog after doing a bit of research to find if there are any "Catholic Amish" type communities out there (for lack of a better term until I discovered "Plain Catholics"). My husband and I feel very called to start some kind of community that sounds very much like what you described in this blog. We live in Northwestern PA. We have already started a "Rustic/Simple Living Challenge" with a few families across the country to challenge ourselves in living outside of the modern conveniences we've gotten used to. We'd be very interested to ask you more about how you do things if you'd be willing to get in touch!The Ketchamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03416772564558254249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301492273634984652.post-31490086828379251152023-07-25T22:18:12.333-04:002023-07-25T22:18:12.333-04:00Thank you for sharing look forward to your post so...Thank you for sharing look forward to your post so encouraging pleased your farm is going well also your family.<br />May God continue to bless you and yours as we look him in these dark times <br />Nana in AustraliaMarie Dybinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18158320657333981398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301492273634984652.post-79326535173327204302023-06-08T19:56:04.486-04:002023-06-08T19:56:04.486-04:00it would be nice to know how you are doing. god bl...it would be nice to know how you are doing. god blessslstranskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15329875708726625863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301492273634984652.post-82122503757749778402021-09-27T14:40:42.590-04:002021-09-27T14:40:42.590-04:00Good to see you!

We are taught to pay no attention to those worshiping around us or what they are doing or how they are worshiping. Any visiting or talking with one's fellow church goers is saved for fellowship afterwards.<br />I also love the quiet times at home of prayer and focusing on spiritual things. we do have television but so not always watch it and listen to music or nothing or watch homilies by priests we are familiar with.Michelle-ozark crafterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02854922223445105068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301492273634984652.post-40182235786105539642018-06-25T23:13:57.077-04:002018-06-25T23:13:57.077-04:00Thank you for those wonderful good words to reflec...Thank you for those wonderful good words to reflect on!

I am from another part of the US and we call ourselves "Old Order" Catholic. This is a new title for us though. Some close friends and I just recently decided that we want to follow the bible more strictly than a traditional Catholic. We wear head coverings and dresses and live by the bible rather than just man-made rules. I would love to hear more about your church!
