    Extractions: This page is still under construction The Brethren Church began in Schwarzenau, Germany in 1708 primarily out of a desire for religious freedom and in reaction to the government controlled churches of the day. By the mid 1700's the Brethren Church had migrated to America in pursuit of that same religious freedom. The heritage of the Brethren church would be similar to that of other "Anabaptist" denominations such as the Mennonite, German Baptist Brethren, Church of the Brethren and Grace Brethren. The Brethren maintain that the entire Bible (Old Testament and New Testament) is the inspired Word of God and that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who gave His life as a sacrifice for our sins. We also believe that Jesus rose from the dead on the third day and that He has ascended into heaven where He intercedes on our behalf. Having ascended into heaven, Jesus sent His Holy Spirit to live in the hearts of His people as our comforter, counselor and friend. We believe that those who have acknowledged Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior will have the assurance of a home in heaven with Christ for all eternity. The Brethren Church seeks to live out their faith in Christ on a daily basis. Obedience to Christ is demonstrated through a commitment to a daily relationship with God and involvement in the ministries of the church. We believe that God empowers His people to this obedient service through the gifts of His Holy Spirit. Each person who believes in Christ is equipped by God to perform some meaningful function within the context of the Body of Christ.

    Extractions: BRETHREN HERITAGE Brethren Beliefs In a climate of centuries of religious turmoil in Europe, and especially Germany, Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to the Cathedral door in 1517. What followed were many reactions one of which resulted in the Protestant Reformation. Emerging from this turmoil were the three State Churches: Roman Catholic, Lutheran, and Calvanists. A fourth group was the Waldensians, a common people who first appeared in the 14 th century. During the 16th century, a group emerged from the Waldensians and lived in fear of persecution in Moravia. These people, known as the Moravins. The Moravians later came to America where they had a settlement in Zoar, Ohio (in the northeastern part of the state). In the 16th century, the Hutterites arose from the Anabaptist group in Moravia, Slovakia, and Transylvania. After 100 years, they fled to Russian Ukraine for religious freedom, where they lived for 100 years, then moved to America and Canada in the 1870's. In the early 16th century, the Reverend Monsignor Menno Simons, a Catholic Priest, became disturbed by the slaughter of Protestant "heretics" and began to preach according to his conscience. His followers became known as Mennonites.

    Extractions: Volume 37, Number 2 Two years ago, a committee that was appointed by Annual Conference to review the structure of the General Board, decided to send out a questionnaire to church leaders across the denomination. Among the many questions on the survey, was one asking for their level of interest in changing the name of the Church of the Brethren. In all the responses, there were only a very few who marked that issue as being an item of major concern. We on the committee concluded that the matter of denominational name change, for all practical purposes, was a "nonissue." A few people have been trying to stir up interest in this item, but with limited success. During past Annual Conferences those persons have tried to collect possible new names to be used instead of "Church of the Brethren." One of their problems is that to date no suggestion for a new name has really caught on with wide acceptance. We should expect that some will try to keep this matter alive as we move toward the 300th Anniversary of our denomination in the year 2008. Don't be surprised if an even more concerted effort to do something about the name change, will unfold over the next few years. There would be a fairly major legal expense attached to changing the name of every congregation and agency of the church. Would this be a good use of the Lord's money? The name change issue could very well cause some people (and entire congregations) to leave the denomination. Do we want to see this happen? It may cause others to be so disappointed over the issue that their level of support will be diminished. Do we want giving to the church to decline?

    Extractions: by Donald F. Durnbaugh A welcome survey of Brethren history comes now from the able pen of Donald Durnbaugh, who has invested his life in researching and chronicling the history of the group which began at Schwarzenau, Germany in 1708. This is the first general Brethren history since Floyd Mallot's Studies in Brethren History but aims to be more comprehensive than Mallot's work, and covers the entire scope of Brethren history in its 675 pages. Some histories can be "dry as dust," but Durnbaugh's ability to tell the Brethren story is far from boring. The writing is clear, the facts are detailed, and the sources are well-documented. Each chapter runs 20-30 pages long. Early on in the book, Durnbaugh assembles the basic beliefs of the early Brethren, as gathered from court records, letters, early descriptions of the Brethren, and early Brethren publications. Those beliefs included: the shared orthodoxy of the Reformation (especially the authority of Scripture and the priesthood of all believers), with an emphasis on discipleship and obedience, the restoration of the early church, nonconformity, church discipline, mutual aid, focus on the Bible with literal interpretation, nonresistance, and love and unity. Durnbaugh states that the early Brethren "rejected the soft and permissive 'false love' practiced among some Pietists ..." and that they "were concerned to maintain a unity of belief and practice among their ranks." These early beliefs stand in stark contrast to the Brethren of the 1990's.

Comments Suggestions about this site The Brethren Heritage Center is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving historical and current information concerning the various Brethren denominations which have a very rich heritage tracing back to 1708 in Schwarzenau, Germany. History Purpose Beginning in the late 1970s historian and genealogist Donald R. Bowman of Brookville, Ohio, a member of the Southern Ohio District Historical Committee of the Church of the Brethren, began accumulating many books, historical records and artifacts from the several Churches of the Brethren in the Miami Valley, Ohio. This collection was housed in the old Happy Corner Church of the Brethren and was opened to the public as "Brethren Heritage Center." By 1999 some old-order Brethren became concerned about preserving their books and records. One of them, Fred W. Benedict, who had earlier pledged his entire library for preservation, met Larry E. Heisey and Mark F. Steury, each of whom pledged to supplement a project from their own extensive collections. At the same time the Happy Corner project needed a new home. In August 2000, Benedict attended a meeting of the Historical Committee and on January 24, 2001, members from several old-order groups, totaling about 30 persons, met in Greenville and agreed to meet with the Historical Committee at Mill Ridge Village, Union, Ohio.

The seminary became Manchester College when, in 1889, it was moved to North Manchester, Ind. In 1895, the campus was purchased by representatives of the Church of the Brethren who deeded it to four State Districts of the Church in 1902. The number of supporting districts increased until, by 1932, Manchester served the five-state area of Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, and Wisconsin. Mount Morris (Ill.) College, merged with Manchester College in 1932. Founded as a Methodist seminary in 1839, Mount Morris had been purchased by representatives of the Church of the Brethren in 1879 and operated under the name of the Rock River Seminary and College Institute until 1844 when the name was changed to Mount Morris College.
