1794 1^ed Menno Simons Mennonite Fundamentals America Anabaptist Pennsylvania

 

Menno Simons was an important and influential Anabaptist priest who is best known for establishing the Mennonite denomination. Simons departed from the Catholic Church and began writing works which rejected the teachings and practices of Catholicism, none more so than his book ‘Foundation of Christian Doctrine’. In it, Simons covers his disagreements with infant baptism, asceticism, and excommunication – all practiced within the Roman Catholic tradition.

 

This 18^th-century first American edition of the works of Menno Simons was published in Pennsylvania, at the heart of the Quaker and Mennonite country in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
