Understand
Morrow County is a rural, agricultural Ohio County. As in many of Ohio's counties, it has a rich and diverse religious heritage that includes many faiths. Included in this heritage you will find less mainstream religious communities, such as Amish, Mennonites and Quakers, also known as Friends. They provide private Christian schools for their children and add much to the community at large.
