In 1811 a trim, friendly little church was built in Altleiningen; the beautiful stone pillars of the entry, of real artistic merit, were said to have come from the old monastery at Höningen. Now the church met every Sunday in its own building. There were about 120 baptized members. For a long time Johannes Goebel of Hertlingshausen, a patriarch of the congregation, and J. Hertzler of Stauf, served them as preachers. Also Johannes Stauffer of Friedelsheim and Jakob Rings of Battenberg were mentioned as preachers." ________________________________________________________________ Source: The Mennonite Quaterly Review, Biographical Dictionary 17th, 18th, and 19th century European Mennonite church leaders, http://www.goshen.edu/mqr/biograph.html.
