| Heimat Fur Heimatlose (Home for the Homeless) is a feature length film depicting the 50 year sojourn of the Mennonites in the Fernheim Colony in the Chaco of Paraguay from 1930 to 1980. It is a tribute to the resourcefulness and perseverance of the pioneers creating a new home in an unfamiliar, tropical and often inhospitable land. The story is captured through re-enactments, archival footage and scenes of contemporary life in their adopted country. This film was shot on location in Paraguay, South America. The sound track is in English, Spanish and German. Copyright 1980 Dueck Film Production | |

Recorded Music
| Early German hymns sung in Lutheran, Reformed, Mennonite and other churches in the 1700s and early 1800s. The recording includes 21 German hymns sung to slow tunes. Nine of the hymns come from an 1803 Lutheran hymnal, nine are found in a 1797 Reformed book, and all are found in Mennonite hymnals. All the hymns are still used by several old order Mennonite groups. An informal anonymous old order ensemble sings them on this CD to slow tunes derived from German chorales, ancient folk tunes, or from later tunes of American hymnody. This CD replaces the cassette Gesangbuch Treasures. Copyright 2009 Harmonies Workshop | |

Plautdietsch
| De Bibel is a Low German Bible. The New Testament is a revision of Daut Niehe
Tastament translated by J.J. Neufeld. The Old Testament was translated by Ed Zacharias, a
missionary among the Mennonites in Mexico. The translation is in the Old Colony dialect rather
than the Molotschna dialect. However, regardless of the dialogue spoken, research shows that the
reader is able to read the text. Includes 9 pages of maps. Copyright Nov 2003 Kindred
