Moravian Church
The Moravian Church, or the Moravian Brethren ( or ''Moravští bratři''), formally the (Latin: "Unity of the Brethren"), is one of the oldest Protestant denominations in Christianity, dating back to the Bohemian Reformation of the 15th century and the Unity of the Brethren () founded in the Kingdom of Bohemia, sixty years before Luther's Reformation.The church's heritage can be traced to 1457 and the Lands of the Bohemian Crown, which included Bohemia, Moravia, Silesia, and previously the Hussite movement against several practices and doctrines of the Catholic Church. Its name is derived from exiles who fled from Moravia to Saxony in 1722 to escape the Counter-Reformation, establishing the Christian community of Herrnhut; hence it is also known in German as the |nolink=y}} ("Unity of Brethren [of Herrnhut]").
The modern has about one million members worldwide, continuing their tradition of missionary work, such as in the Americas and Africa, that is reflected in their broad global distribution. Moravians continue many of the same practices established in the 18th century, including placing a high value on a personal conversion to Christ, called the New Birth, and piety, good works, evangelism, including the establishment of missions, Christian pacifism, ecumenism, and music.
The Moravian Church's emblem is the Lamb of God () with the flag of victory, surrounded by the Latin inscription "" ('Our Lamb has conquered; let us follow Him'). Provided by Wikipedia
