Harmony Christian Fellowship (Millington, Maryland, USA)
The Harmony Christian Fellowship in Millington, Maryland, USA was established in 1955 in a rural area on the eastern shore of Maryland. The congregation started when settlers from Dover, Delaware and Lancaster, Pennsylvania came to the area.
The congregation suffered a division in 1064-1964 when the founding ministers, serving a minority of the congregation retained use of the facility temporarily before moving to a remodeled dwelling. The majority of the congregation then returned to the meetinghouse.
In 2017 the church was a member of the Beachy Amish Mennonite Fellowship and had a membership of 45. The bishop was Stephen Stoltzfus, and the minister was Timothy Yoder.
