Donnermeyer Emeritus Professor/Academy Professor School of Environment and Natural Resources The Ohio State University [email protected] Steven M. Nolt Professor of History and Anabaptist Studies Young Center for Anabaptist and Pietist Studies Elizabethtown College [email protected] Published March 24, 2021 https://doi.org/10.18061/jpac.v1i2.8234 ere we are! Near the end of winter and looking forward to spring. COVID-19 vaccines are H rolling out and millions have already received their vaccinations or know their turn is soon to come. This issue of JPAC includes a chronicle of COVID-19 events during 2020 and the pandemic’s impact on Amish communities, as seen through mass media coverage aggregated on Erik Wesner’s Amish America website. Woven through his account are about 90 links to news sources organized around themes such as public health outreach to Amish communities, public perceptions—pro and con—of the Amish response to the virus, COVID-19 cases among the Amish, and others. Wesner’s article is must reading for anyone interested in the impact of COVID- 19 on the Amish, on media coverage of Plain communities, and on the nuanced and diverse reactions of the Amish to the pandemic. In addition, this issue’s “Fieldwork and Reflections” section includes the observations of Victor Stoltzfus on COVID-19 and the large Elkhart- LaGrange Amish settlement in northern Indiana. (We expect to include more COVID-related articles in the next issue of JPAC, vol. 2, no. 1, Summer 2021.) Beyond the pandemic, this issue includes a number of articles that will delight aficionados of population studies and those “eggheads” among us who love statistics.

The world is still facing war and rumor of war. Though nearly forty years have passed us by, the Wagoners' report radiates a timely hope for an answer that "takes away the occasion for war." Previously, we have been able to write only in briefest summary of the Primavera decades. This report will surely warm the hearts of all who experienced that period of our history. To those with no experience of it, we hope to give a glimpse and at least some understanding of that time. The Editors January 15, 1991 Com. in Par. 15 Nov 90 4 FOREWORD This is a charming and winsome story of the six month visit of Bob and Shirley Wagoner to the three Bruderhofs in Paraguay, known collectively as Primavera ("springtime" in Spanish).

DeWeese-Boyd: The Nurturing Communities Project The Nurturing Communities Project: Fostering Persistence and Emergence in Intentional Christian Communities By Margie DeWeese-Boyd The concept, praxis, and experience of “community” in America have arguably been stretched thin so as to no longer signify anything substantial. Many, in fact, decry the demise of community even as “buy local” campaigns and the locavore food movement try to reclaim some of its lost ground. Bill McKibben, for instance, bemoans the growing dispersion and disconnection that characterizes a good deal of American life today: “We change religions, spouses, towns, professions with ease … [w]e are not just individualists; we are hyper-individualists.”1 Ours is a culture that readily severs ties, even as it suffers the ramifications of those various dislocations. This American life is a life dispersed: we work ten miles away with people who live twenty miles beyond that, buy food grown a thousand miles away from grocery clerks who live in a different subdivision, date people from the other side of town, and worship with people who live an hour’s drive from one another.… We serve soup to the poor folks on the other side of the tracks, but we don’t know the person on the other side of our fence.

It argues that the separatist heritage of Plain Anabaptism exemplified by PVC represents a viable missionary ecclesiology for an increasingly postmodern context. Most Plain Anabaptist groups have seen considerable growth in recent years, due partly to procreation rates and retention of youth.

Go with the Faux: Re-Evaluating the Design of the Richardson Dilworth House Abstract When elected to the office of Philadelphia's Mayor in 1956, Richardson Dilworth pledged his administration's dedication towards the physical improvement of Philadelphia. The Mayor made the revitalization of southeast quadrant of the city's core, known as Society Hill, a priority during his administration. As a symbol of his commitment, Dilworth decided to move himself and his family to the neighborhood. The Dilworths commissioned restoration architect, G. Edwin Brumbaugh. Brumbaugh designed a three and a half story, single family Colonial Revival house on the former site of two, 1840s structures. Dilworth resided in the house until his death in 1974. Discussions pertaining to the site's significance have focused narrowly on the building's associations, rather than the physical structure.

From 1884 to 1890, he was Superintendent of Schools of Huntingdon county. In the next few years, after one year at Harvard, he secured his Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 1894. Heeding Dr. Brumbaugh's persistent plea for more adequate training in pedagogy, Provost Harrison of the University of Pennsylvania created a chair of pedagogy the following year, 1895, and in recognition of his leadership in educational matters Dr. Brumbaugh was appointed first professor of pedagogy. This position he filled on a part-time basis, rendering his services to Juniata College at the same time. During the week he attended to his duties as president and teacher of Juniata College, and on Saturdays he taught his graduate classes in pedagogy at the University of Pennsylvania. After the Spanish-American War, Dr. Brumbaugh was per- suaded by Provost Harrison, who granted him a two-year leave of absence, to accept President McKinley's appointment as first United States Commissioner of Education to Puerto Rico. There Dr. Brumbaugh set up and put into running order a thoroughly American school system. His success in this task is un- questionable. With the termination of his work in Puerto Rico in 1902, he returned to teach his classes at the University of Pennsyl- vania. By this time the Department of Pedagogy had advanced 'This article is rewritten from Chapter VI of "Martin Grove Brumbaugh, Educator," the author's Master's thesis in History at the Pennsylvania State College, 1937.
