Church of the Brethren Background

In the New Testament, the word brethren describes the kinship of men and women who chose another way of living: the way of Jesus.

The Church of the Brethren, begun in 1708 in Germany, still draws people who want to continue Jesus' work of loving service. Today, some 150,000 members in more than 1,000 congregations across the United States carry on the denomination's early tradition of living peacefully and simply and sharing in a vital faith community.

For guidance, Brethren look to the Christian scriptures rather than to doctrine. Brethren work locally and worldwide to help victims of war, poverty, and natural disasters.
