Mennonite congregations come in a wide variety of styles. The most noticeable are the [[Old Order Mennonite]]s who practice a simple lifestyle with limited use of technology, similar to that popularly associated with the Old Order Amish.

Some Old Order Mennonites have a simply way of living, wear traditional clothes and avoid modern technology. Other Mennonites use the same  types of technology and wear  the same  types of clothes as other modern people. Some Mennonites shun the [[Amish]].
