A world away compared to Amish people

I am comparing the book "A World Away" and the poem "Amish People" by Caryl Muzzey. In the poem it says, "without consulting their church councilmen" it is saying without judging their religion this reminds me of when people would come to Eliza's home and they would judge her and her family just because of what they believe in and the way their life style is. Also in the poem it says, "everyone lives by their church faith." I think that is powerful because people try changing people religion and this line  is saying live by what you believe in you shouldn't let anyone change what you believe in.
