Note the scripture verse at the top of the document - Col. 3:14 - "Above all, clothe yourselves in love." What a lovely sentiment.

with a description of the Mennonites in North America starting on page 79 (image 91).
In case your people were not Mennonite, there was also a Lutheran Conference, which also had several Zion churches. See https://archive.org/stream/historyofevangel00otth/historyofevangel00otth_djvu.txt
