"What holidays do you celebrate and why?"
"Holidays observed by the Amish are the religious holidays: Thanksgiving, Christmas, Good Friday, Easter, Ascension Day, Pentecost, and Whit Monday (the day after Pentecost). The reasons for these observances are to fast and meditate on scriptures related to these days. We should also mention that December 25 is a solemn celebration of Christ's birth and "second Christmas" on December 26 is a time for visiting and family dinners."

Do Amish Celebrate Christmas

I don't know if they have trees. It wouldn't surprise me either way. But they do celebrate Christmas in its simplest form with the religious aspect, not the commercial.

sure they do....whether it extremely is an extremely diverse party than how others in united statesa. have fun. not in all probability commercialized in any respect. It has much extra to do with the assumption of celebrating the beginning of Christ and being with kin.
