Leaving the Amish community for the LDS Church

Saints Unscripted - A podcast by Saints Unscripted

We are honored to hear Orpha's conversion story on our channel today. Orpha grew up Amish and has many fond memories of her time in the Amish community. However, when she was young, her parents secretly joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (otherwise known as the Mormon Church), which is heavily frowned upon by the Amish community. Her parents wanted to ease in to the process of becoming LDS and introducing their family to the Church. Orpha learned of her parents' conversion and was shocked. She didn't want to believe their story and didn't want her parents to be destined to Hell, which is what was assumed of those who left her faith.
