Be Good
The Amish people don’t believe that baptism will lead you to heaven. Instead, the Amish believe that you have to practice ‘God’s Will’ in order to find your way into Heaven. ‘God’s Will’ simply means that you have to do good things every day.

Excommunication
When things reach the absolute worst between members of the Amish community an excommunication will occur. Excommunication means that you are completely cut off from the community. Even your parents will turn away from you, never recognizing you as their child again. If someone breaks the rules of excommunication then they too will be banished.
