Amish Superstition

Eliza and Matthew have returned despite being shunned. They got a plot of land close to the community enough to stay out of trouble. At least that is what they thought. Some old order families within the village target the family, secretly putting vinegar in the milk, rats in the grain stores, and tampering with their farming equipment in an attempt to get them to leave Elsa sees comings and goings of various disguised family members doing this, but doesn't realise at first who is responsible While this is happening a particular dry summer continues and plagues the land with a prolonged drought. This, in conjunction with the presence of an unwanted family causes unrest in the typically peaceful community. Elsa, after connecting dots and realising who is behind the attacks on her sister's family, appeals to an elder and bishop to punish the families in question since, despite them upholding the meidung, they violated the ordnung and offended Gott. They do not listen, and instead blame the Eliza and Matthew for the drought, suggesting their sin has brought Gott's wrath to the town. Can Eliza and Matthew find peace with the community and peace with Gott?
