The Ordung refers to the set of rules that govern the daily lives of the Amish. These rules are reviewed biannually by every member of the church. It outlines all the practices of each day, as well as the list of limitations members must adhere to. This includes minimal to no use of phones, cars, electricity lines, as well as the rules of their dress code.
