Berk, consider how Pentecostals would view a couple of university students with cameras, tape recorders and clipboards to document the "tongue speakers".

And here is the only good in depth documentation of the group I was a part of. It contains a few pics of some of my own realatives.
I question the 18,000 number -- it must be for members. They typically join the membership at about age seventeen to nineteen, so the number would be much higher for total constituents.

They systematically compare the Wengers with other Mennonite groups as well as with the Amish, showing how relationships with these other groups have had a powerful impact on shaping the identity of the Wenger Mennonites in the Anabaptist world. As Kraybill and Hurd show, the Wengers have learned that it is impossible to maintain a static culture in an ever-changing, high-tech world. Examining how the Wengers have cautiously and incrementally adapted to the changes swirling around them, this book offers an invaluable case study of a traditional group caught in the throes of a postmodern world.
