History Note

The Church of the United Brethren in Christ began with the preaching of Philip William Otterbein and Martin Boehm in the 1760's. At a 1789 conference at his parsonage in Baltimore, Otterbein and his lay ministers gave simple organization to the fellowship which had been holding sporadic conferences since 1774.

On September 25, 1800, at a meeting of Otterbein, Martin Boehm, and other lay ministers at the home of Peter Kemp in Maryland, the church was formally organized. At this meeting, Boehm and Otterbein were elected bishops and the name, "Church of the United Brethren in Christ" was chosen.

In 1815, the first General Conference was held near Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania. At this Conference a Discipline, a Confession of Faith, and a form of church government were approved. A second General Conference was held June 2, 1817, also at Mount Pleasant. This conference improved the Discipline, elected two Bishops, formed a third Annual Conference, and arranged for quadrennial sessions of the General Conference.

In 1946, the Church of the United Brethren in Christ merged with the Evangelical Church to form the Evangelical United Brethren Church.
