I noticed you wrote “Evangelical Methodist” church...is that a different branch from the “regular” Methodist church this article is talking about? BTW, congratulations on enjoying a good Church “family”. It is so important in our lives...
Yes, it’s a different denomination but it does orginate from the UMC. I guess at some point they got in a disagreement about purchasing pew seating in the church (this was a long time ago) and decided to break away because they disagreed with the practice. The church is very conservative and puts Biblical tradition and holiness at the center of its teachings.
