SPEAKER, on Amish

NEED A SPEAKER?

♥"Brenda's standing-room-only program was one of the most popular events at our library this year. Her "Beyond Buggies and Bonnets: True Amish Tales" program was an engaging look at the Swartzentruber Amish Order in Ohio. Despite being located close to Amish Country, people in our area are still fascinated by their way of life. Brenda's presentation brought our Amish friends and neighbors to life in a way that was unique because it was an "insider's look" at their way of life."

♥“For those who, like me, are always looking for a good, inexpensive adult program, the Twinsburg Public Library hosted a program on Amish culture we called 'The Amish Inside and Out,' with speaker Brenda Nixon.

The program surpassed my expectations in the warmth and appeal of the presenter and the breadth of her knowledge, particularly of the conservative Swartzentruber order. She begins with an overview of the Amish and ends with personal experiences and Q&A.

Her daughter is married to an ex-Amish man, and her home has become a sort of safe house for young men and women making the transition out of the Amish community.

If anyone is interested in hosting Brenda, her fee is very reasonable. Contact her at speaker2parents @ juno.com” ~Karen W., Adult Services Librarian, 2014.
