	Evangelical United Brethren Church. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		The Evangelical Church was begun by the evangelical, pietistic efforts of Jacob Albright, a Lutheran convert to Methodism, who preached among his fellow Pennsylvania Germans.

	Methodists United for Peace with Justice
		Earlier United Brethren (UB) historians identified their denomination as the first American-born denomination since roots were traced to the encounter between Philip William Otterbein (1726-1813) and Martin Boehm (1725-1812) at a barn revival meeting in 1767 (the Long's barn meeting, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania).
		Early UB and Evangelicals sometimes held dual allegiance to these peace church traditions and to the newly formed revival denominations, which included participating in the "love feasts" of the Dunkers and the foot-washing practice of the Mennonites.
		United Brethren placed a high priority upon being an "unpartisan" fellowship, and they did not allow even the division of the nation during the Civil War to disrupt that unity.
