Coming out with a religious background was very hard for me, I can only imagine it being worse for the Amish. I want to help them in their struggle.

Thanks for being creepy bubba, but no, I don't live in PENN and won't drive out there either. I just want to make donations to a charity of my choice.

Amish youth go out into the world to test their faith during something called "rumspringa", so if they decided to not go back in the community and then came out of the closet they would likely have adopted another faith. I would imagine given the rumspringa that any formerly Amish gay would not still identify as Amish.
You might want to try one of the links below to find out organizations that support lgbt Christians of many different faiths.
Hope it helps

the really help crew an Amish individual would have available will be... a million. God...... their personal Lord and Saviour. 2. major different..... If married. Or 3. community..... religious Leaders, close friends etc..... In that order. the really conferences that are held are both of a social nature Quilting, canning, barn construction.... or For the community..... we want extra faculties and instructors.... even as an Amish individual receives depressed he turns to the Holy Bible to handbook him through his hassle. wish this facilitates.

WOW that is really sweet of you. I grew up in KY and the Amish lived all around us. Did you know they are granted 1 year of freedom to decide if they want to live the Amish life - it is somehwere around the end of puberty. Actually I am not sure if the girls are granted it I know the boys are granted the time.

I haven't done any research on the subject, but I'm sure that with the amount of information available on the net, there's bound to be something you can find. I know there are many different outreach programs for young people.

Sounds to me like you have a desire to make it with an Amish guy.
