Mission to Amish People is a site dedicated to sharing information about ministries, services, testimonies, and opportunities to Amish and non-Amish (English) communities alike. There is a threefold purpose of Mission to Amish People:
To Evangelize and Disciple Amish and Former Amish People:
This is being accomplished through personal witness, home Bible studies, home prayer meetings, the SonLight Club, The Amish Voice, and the Tape/CD Ministry. MAP Ministry also offers counseling and protection to those who are victims of sexual, mental, and physical abuse.
To assist older teenagers and young adults who have already left the Amish culture by providing basic Life Skills such as:
