The Bruderhof

The Bruderhof is a Christian communal movement that emphasizes living and working together in shared communities based on principles of mutual support, nonviolence, and simple living. Originating in the early 20th century, members dedicate their lives to faith, often including shared possessions, collective worship, and a commitment to social justice. They seek to embody the teachings of Jesus through everyday actions, focusing on community, compassion, and service. While they maintain their faith traditions, they are open and respectful of diverse backgrounds and work towards creating communities rooted in love and equality.
