The Anabaptist Movement

Before you read Lesson 24, create a neatly drawn and written "family tree" of the Protestant Reformers and their followers.  Title the page "Protestant Reformers and Their Followers."  Because most would say the Protestant Reformation started in Germany, you will file this under "Europe: Germany." 

Complete your history card for lesson 23, and then read lesson 24 also doing its history card.

Add to the family tree of reformers after reading lesson 24.

There are Hutterite communities living in the United States today.  Enjoy this Hutterite choir singing Be Thou My Vision.   Also, read the question on this Hutterite blog.  The answer to it is just under the picture of the handwritten hymnal in the photo.  Then scroll down to the bottom of the blog page.  Listen to the You Tube performance of a German country folk band and listen to a bit of the song until you recognize its sound well enough.  Then click on the blue words just under the video, "same song," to hear that song sung by some Hutterite ladies.  It is a recording only without video.  How do they compare?  I hope you have enjoyed learning about the Hutterites!
