What is the Church of the Brethren?
In the New Testament, the word Brethren describes a community of men and women who choose another way of living...
the way of Jesus. The Church of the Brethren, begun in Germany almost 300 years ago, still draws those who want to
continue Jesus' work of loving service. Brethren look to the New Testament for guidance rather than to doctrine, or
rules, designed by humans. Our faith emphasizes compassionate service, justice-seeking, and moderation in living.
Brethren work locally and worldwide to help victims of war, poverty, and natural disasters. We baptize those who
seek to follow Jesus; we anoint for healing and wholeness; and in our Love Feast we reenact the Last Supper at
which Jesus washed his disciples' feet and offered the bread and cup in Communion. We believe Jesus showed us
another way of living... a way of peace and love. We strive to continue the work of Jesus ... peacefully, simply,
and together. For more information visit www.brethren.org - the official
