And Are We Yet Alive”: Reflections on the Twentieth Anniversary of the Historical Society of the United Methodist Church
Methodist History, 48:1 (October 2009) “AND ARE WE YET ALIVE”: REFLECTIONS ON THE TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY OF THE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH CHARLES YRIGOYEN, JR. In 1749, Charles Wesley published a poem in a collection titled, Hymns and Sacred Poems. The poem was located in the section of the book desig- nated “Hymns for Christian Friends.” Since the time of the Wesleys, Charles’ poem has been the opening hymn of the British Methodist Conference and has often opened many other annual conferences of world Methodism. Some of its words, but not all, are especially appropriate for the celebration of the first twenty years of our Historical Society. Many of you know the hymn, #553 in The United Methodist Hymnal: “And are we yet alive, and see each other’s face? Glory and praise to Jesus give for his redeeming grace.” Just twenty years ago this week our Society was born here at Lake Junaluska. Three hundred fifty people were present for the launching. The keynote address was delivered by Dr. Albert C. Outler, world renowned scholar of the Wesleys, outstanding theologian, and leading ecumenist. At the time we did not know it would be Outler’s last public address, the con- summation of a brilliant career. Some of those present this evening attended that event and became charter members of the Society. Others attending that evening have crossed the threshold from this life to the next. The organization of the denomination’s Historical Society was an indi- cation of United Methodist interest in our church’s history. -

Two Separate Unions Formed One United Church by David Oberlin, 1979
Two Separate Unions Formed One United Church by David Oberlin, 1979 The United Methodist Church is the product of two recent church mergers – one in 1946, which brought the Evangelical and United Brethren in Christ denominations together to form the Evangelical United Brethren Church (hereafter called the EUB Church); and one in 1968, which combined the EUB and Methodist denominations to form the United Methodist Church. Each merger created a new denomination, altered church organization, and had an impact on its membership. This paper examines these two mergers and their impact on members of affected congregations in Union County, Pennsylvania. Located in a rural setting in central Pennsylvania, Union County includes many small communities and two major towns – Lewisburg with almost 9,000 residents, and Mifflinburg with a population close to 7,000. Within the county are 17 United Methodist churches – three of which are former Methodist, and fourteen of which are former EUB. While the United Brethren in Christ Church was active in central Pennsylvania, all of the former EUB congregations in Union County were originally Evangelical. Each of the former Methodist congregations has its own pastor, and ten of the fourteen former EUB congregations make up three circuits within the county. Because there were no United Brethren in Christ churches in Union County, the 1946 merger did not have much of an impact on the congregations of the county. The 1968 merger, on the other hand, had a large impact in Union County because EUB and Methodist churches were located throughout the county. In Mifflinburg and Lewisburg, for example, the 1968 merger resulted in two United Methodist churches located within a block of each other. -
