People often confuse Mennonites with the Amish and the Mormons, according to the Rev. Joel Shenk.
The pastor of Toledo Mennonite Church since October, Mr. Shenk told a tour group of about 150 that while there is a historical thread connecting Mennonites and Amish, it's puzzling why people mix up Mennonites and Mormons.
Perhaps it's because both names start with the letter M, he said.
