Methodist Episcopal was the largest mainstream church in the U.S. before the Methodists merged with the Evangelical United Brethren in 1968 to form the UMC. The liturgy was much closer to the traditional Anglican than the present UMC mess. You realize that John Wesley was an Anglican priest when he started Methodism, right?

I did not. I do not know the history of every protestant denomination. I had heard of Methodists and Episcopalian, but not the two as one.
