Gay Mennonite Amish Network
The Gay Mennonite Amish Network(GMAN) was established on April 24, 2025, in the Township of Perth East, Ontario, Canada.
Seeing a serious need for education, support, friendship and networking for gay and bisexual men in the Perth County area of Ontario, GMAN was established to meet their needs for a safe place to understand their sexuality within an Anabaptist context. Perth County is the centre of Old Order Amish Country, and has a significant number of Amish Mennonites, Old Order, and Conservative Mennonites. Many gay Mennonites and Amish have little or no support in Perth and nearby counties.
The GMAN maintains a list of gay/bisexual resources in the Perth County area and elsewhere, and is always open for confidential and educational discussions. Please email: milvertonam@gmail.com
