9781420808544: The Meadowlark's Song: Growing Up Mennonite in 1930s North Dakota

Synopsis

Only in this generation had Albert and his family been Mennonites. Sometimes they struggled with the tenets of this new faith, far more restrictive than the Lutheranism of their early years. Along with the stresses of adhering to this new way of life, one that effectively cut them off from communication even with close relatives who lived nearby, was the added struggle of living through the years of the Dustbowl, when for all who lived on farms through those times, the 'wolf' of poverty was always at the door. Ultimately, the decision of the family to leave the land of the beloved family homestead, was made both harder and easier by the economic realties of that historic time.

About the Author

The Meadowlark's Song is the story of a childhood lived by the author within the restrictive culture of a conservative branch of the Mennonite Church. The story takes place on a North Dakota farm during the years of the Great Depression. The people are real and as described; the events actually occurred, and reveal a time and a culture and a way of life for the most part lost to the recorded history of that era. The author has lived as an observant outsider of the Mennonite church throughout her adult life, and thus perhaps sees that culture more clearly than do those who remain within its restrictive covenants.
