WHO ARE WE?

About one hundred years later, the Pietistic Revival movement stirred renewal among European Protestants. The "Pietists" stressed the importance of genuine conversion and warm personal experience swept through Europe and on to America.

At about the same time, John Wesley inspired a renewal movement in England. The Wesley brothers experienced the heart-felt faith of the Pietists that led to an awakening throughout England and, ultimately, to the "Wesleyan" movement in America. This movement has come to be known as the Holiness movement - emphasizing conversion as a conscious acceptance of God, the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, and daily growth in holiness.

What began in the 1750's in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, has since been spreading throughout North America and, through an overwhelming receptivity of our missionaries, throughout the world.
