MORAVIAN CHURCH HISTORY
The Moravian Church, also known as the Unitas Fratrum or Unity of the Brethren, has a rich history dating back to the 15th century. It originated in the Kingdom of Bohemia (present-day Czech Republic) as a reform movement within the Roman Catholic Church, following the teachings of John Hus, a Czech reformer and martyr. The church emphasized a strong personal relationship with Christ, the authority of the Bible, and simplicity in worship. Persecution drove its early followers to establish isolated communities in Moravia and other parts of Europe, fostering a distinct identity. In the 18th century, under the leadership of Count Nicolaus Ludwig von Zinzendorf, the Moravian Church experienced a revival and became a dynamic missionary movement, spreading its influence across the world. Its commitment to social justice, education, and community living continues to shape its legacy as a significant Protestant denomination with a global presence.
