Good Friday gathering.
Good Friday is a sacred day in the life of Amish. Most Amish church districts hold a long church service, usually for adults only. The focus is to remember Christ dying on the cross for humankind.

Old Order Mennonites have church service on Good Friday, too, and the children attend as well. I wonder why the Amish children don’t attend.
