Morningview Amish Mennonite Church
From Anabaptistwiki
Morningview Amish Mennonite Church (1945-2023), was an Anabaptist congregation near Newton, Ontario, Canada. In 1945 a division within the Old Order Amish in Mornington Township resulted in the creation of a new congregation known as the 'Henry Albrecht District'. Members of the congregation met in homes until 1987, when a meetinghouse was built. The first service was held on 13 September, 1987.
The church closed at the end of 2023, and the building was sold to Kleine Gemeinde Mennonites, who use the same name for their congregation.
