Yes, the Amish are a part of the Christian Faith. The Amish believe the Bible is the word of God, and they believe that Jesus is the son of God who came to Earth, lived a sinless life and died on the cross to save them from their sins. The Amish are a sect of old German and speak Pennsylvania Dutch. They settled in this country from Germany. They are called the plain people because of their plain dress and their simple lifestyle. The Amish follow the Bible more literally than most modern churches today. They do not believe in living like this world does. 1 John 2:9 reminds us to not love this world or the things in this world. The Amish believe in keeping mainly to themselves (1 Corinthians15:33) but they do acknowledge other Christians as saved. The Amish are not lacking in doing good, and are great helpers to people who are in need. They Love the Lord with all their hearts, minds and souls and are an excellent example of true Christian faith in action. Most People who get to know the Amish, have a great respect for how they have kept to Gods word and have not been influenced by anything in this world. The Amish have their own church standards called the ordnung, which helps them to follow the commands of Christ. However one command of Christ that the Amish do not do, is to go therefore and make disciples of all nations Matthew 28:18. The reason they do not evangelise is because they have suffered great persecution in their past history, by being burned, imprisoned and drowned for their Anabaptist faith, so these days the Amish prefer to live quietly in the land and use their Godly living as an example to those who are not Amish.
