Product Description
The life of the Evangelical United Brethren Church (EUB) was short_less than 22 years_yet this relatively small German-American denomination had a significant impact on Protestant Christianity. It developed a leading role in ecumenical movements in the United States, it succeeded in presenting programs that have been presented to the highest level of United Methodism_the General Conference_and it has made important contributions to scholarship in church history by preserving and making available to researchers an outstanding collection of materials.The essays gathered together in this book were taken from papers presented at a conference commemorating the 50th anniversary of the joining of the Church of the United Brethren in Christ and the Evangelical Church to create the EUB denomination. The papers emphasize the development of the merged church, its theology, its concept of ministry, the history of the denomination in Europe, and the mission programs of the denomination. The Making of an American Church: Essays Commemorating the Jubilee Year of the Evangelical United Brethren Church is a unique collection of papers by EUB scholars and general church officers that combines scholarly rigor with an involvement in the events they discuss. ...

Churches worked individually and together with the adjoining churches. Occasionally there would be held a conference, including the officials of a few congregations. Brother J. G. Fraqcis says that there was a meeting of this kind held in Northern Indiana as early as 1857. In 1859 another such meeting was held in Elkhart County on a love- feast occasion. Twenty-five ministers and elders were present, including some from Ohio, among them Elder Henry Kurtz.Gradually there grew up a natural division of the State, because of geographical convenience, into a northern and a southern part. In 1863 two meetings were held, much resembling our modern District Meetings. We include the minutes of these meetings as far as we have them. They will give us some idea of the problems of the local churches at this early date.DISTRICT MEETING IN NORTHERN INDIANA Held Near Goshen, April 6, 1863Query 1. About the difference between the ancient order of holding love feasts and the 43rd query of last Annual Meeting. Considered to abide by our established order till farther light is given, and for this purpose the matter is referred to next yearly meeting for reconsideration and bringing about a union in this and other matters of difference.Query 2. About the avoidance. That brethren should engage seriously in examining the matter in order ... ... Read more
