The Kleine Gemeinde came to Belize in 1978. They left the Quellen Colony, Chihauhua, Mexico looking for land. In Belize's Cayo District, located on the north side of the Belize River, they settled 18,500 acres in the jungle that became the Spanish Lookout Colony.[3]
Today (2009), Spanish Lookout is Belize's most modern Mennonite Community.[4] The Mennonites in Spanish Lookout are major producers of dairy, poultry, vegetables and cattle.[5] Furniture manufacturing, house construction, and automotive industry are also important parts of the Spanish Lookout economy.[6] In addition, oil was recently discovered in Spanish Lookout.[7]
While Kleine Gemeinde settled the Spanish Lookout Colony, today (2009) the colony is made up of both Kleine Geiemende and Evangelical Mennonite Mission Church (EMMC) communities.[8]
