Growing up in a Mennonite environment, speaking only Low German until school-age, the author grew to fully appreciate this background later in adulthood as he encompassed the globe. Observing many Mennonite communities the world over, he saw first-hand how they each had contributed to the country where they settled, and found that the Anabaptist principles of Menno Simons, a co-founder in 1536, are still viable in today's world. This heritage also influenced the author's proclivity for volunteer work throughout his life - not just for Mennonites, but for others regardless of race or creed. This greatly broadened his travels and resulting friendships. This book covers the transition of our times from farm-based to high-tech, from horses in the fields to men on the moon, satellites, computers and IPhones.
