The community in Hamburg began in 1993 in East Aurora, New York, with a construction crew and a very small household of 15-20 people. We have moved a few times since then and have opened a bakery and an iron forge. As the early church did, our life centers around our master, Yahshua, as we devote our lives to him and to each other daily. We all live together and share all things in common just as the disciples our master gathered did after he rose victoriously over death.

Our industries allow us to work alongside our children and each other. This also allows us to be visible to all those who live around us as people come into our bakery and we go to craft shows to display our products. We are now approximately 60 people in two households and are always looking for ways to share with others the life that we have in our master, Yahshua.

Most of us were searching for meaning to life and for real love that allows us to lay down our lives every day for our brothers and sisters. We are really thankful for the way our master searched us out and led us into the path of someone who had already been immersed in this life. We know there are many other people out there with the same heart as ours, and we are always looking to share what we have found with them.

This is a way of life that does away with loneliness and separation — a true unity of heart and mind. One heart, one mind, one way, the way of Yahshua. We live a simple, normal life and wholeheartedly welcome visitors, be it for a day or to stay. [Feb99]
