Assessment

Naumburg Mennonite Church anchors part of the cluster of CMC/Rosedale Network congregations in Lewis County, upstate New York (alongside Croghan, Living Hope Ministries Glenfield, Iglesia Hispana Luz y Vida Lowville, Grace and Truth Carthage). The Castorland/Lowville area is one of the largest Conservative Mennonite settlements in the Northeast, providing a plain Anabaptist counterweight to the dominant Catholic and mainline Protestant presence in upstate NY. CMC/Rosedale male-only ordination and confessional integrity yield green.
