The Carrier Mills Amish Mennonite Church in Stonefort, Illinois, USA was established in 1991.

A group from the Hickory Amish Mennonite Church in Mayfield, Kentucky started an outreach in southern Illinois.

In 2017 the church was a member of the Beachy Amish Mennonite Fellowship and had a membership of 68. The bishop was John Milton Yoder, and the ministers were James A. Bontrager, John H. Gingerich, and Samuel W. Yoder.
