Albert KRANTZ and Miriam KRANTZ, Appellants v. ARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES, Appellee

RITA W. GRUBER, Judge.

Albert and Miriam Krantz appeal from an order adjudicating their children, L.K., A.K.1, A.K.2, S.K., C.K., and R.K., dependent-neglected after DHS took them into custody from the Tony Alamo Christian Ministries compound in Fouke, Arkansas, in November 2008. In the same proceeding, the circuit court also adjudicated the children of Don Thorne, Bethany Myers, and Carlos and Sophia Parrish dependent-neglected. All of the parents make the same arguments on appeal. They challenge the sufficiency of the evidence to support the dependency-neglect findings, and contend that the trial court violated their rights to the free exercise of their religion in ordering them to obtain and maintain housing and employment separate and apart from the ministry.

In a separate opinion, we affirmed the adjudication order involving the children of Don Thorne. Thorne v. Ark. Dep't of Human Servs., 2010 Ark. 317, ___ S.W.3d ___. We affirm the adjudication order involving the Krantzes' children for the same reasons expressed in the Thorne appeal.

Affirmed.

MARSHALL and BAKER, JJ., agree.
