They receive communion twice every year, and it always takes place in spring and fall. Amish will receive a piece of homemade bread, genuflect, then eat it. Then they drink from a chalice of wine. It is a very special ceremony, and afterward, men and women are separated to wash each others feet as a sign of humbleness, humility, obedience to God, and respect.

Rumspringa is a period of adolescence among the Amish community, typically starting at age 16, during which young people are allowed to experience activities outside of their traditional Amish lifestyle.
