MENNONITE SETTLEMENT IN JACKSON COUNTY

THERE IS A NEW MENNONITE CHURCH IN JACKSON COUNTY.
THIS IS THEIR NEW CHURCH EAST OF ANDREW ON THE SPRINGBROOK
ROAD....JUST OFF THE ROAD ABOUT A BLOCK NORTH.    
THE LAST FEW YEARS, MENNONITES HAVE PURCHASED QUITE A FEW
FARMS IN JACKSON COUNTY.      YEARS AGO, AMISH SETTLED IN THE
COUNTY AND THEN LEFT.    MENNONITES AND AMISH ARE NOT THE SAME.
JUST BEFORE NOON WHEN I TOOK THIS PHOTO OF THEIR CHURCH (AND SCHOOL) THERE WERE ABOUT 30 CARS (ALL BLACK CARS) IN THEIR LARGE PARKING LOT.  

I ASSUME THE LARGE STONE WILL BE USED FOR THEIR NAME, ETC. SOME DAY.
LET'S WELCOME MENNONITES TO JACKSON COUNTY!
WE WILL TRY TO GET SOMEONE ON "JUST TALK" TO TELL ABOUT THEIR
MOVING TO JACKSON COUNTY AND..... FOR MORE ABOUT THEM, YOU CAN
READ A LOT IF YOU GOOGLE "MENNONITES IN IOWA".
