1840: First united church in U.S. history

 Eden Theological Seminary, founded in 1850 by the Evangelical Synod

A meeting of pastors in Missouri forms the first united church in U.S. history — the Evangelical Synod, forebears of the United Church of Christ. It unites two Protestant traditions that have been separated for centuries: Lutheran and Reformed.

The Evangelicals believe in the power of tradition, but also in spiritual freedom. "Rigid ceremony and strong condemnation of others are terrible things to me," one of them writes.

For a list of 20 notable UCC Firsts, check out the More Options menu at the bottom of the left-hand column on this page.

The United Church of Christ (UCC) is a union of four principal traditions: Congregational, Christian, Evangelical, and Reformed. Each of these traditions has left a mark on U.S. religious and political history, often in the lead on issues of peace, justice and equality.
