The Church of the Brethren

Our demonination has its roots in both the Anabaptist and Pietist traditions. The Church of the Brethren traces its beginnings to Alexander Mack and seven others who were baptized in the Eder River in Schwarzenau, Germany in 1708. The Church of the Brethren has no written creed other than the New Testament. Basic tenets of the denomination include: believer's baptism, service to others, commitment to fostering peace and dedication to continuing the work of Jesus.
