The Evangelical Brethren Church is a Christian Denomination which operates globally but is based in Arcadia. It is the largest denomination within the Brethren Tradition and is a growing tradition in several counties worldwide. Founded in 1949 by D.W.C Chaloner it initially started as a single church in the small town of Beckettsville, Arcadia and has grown steadily ever since. The church holds to Fehrian Theology and teaches free grace, conditional security, and free will.
The church while small in its native Arcadia, has seen exponetial growth in places like Upper Asema thanks to well funded missionary work in the 80's and 90's. with over 2/3rds of its practisioners being of Maurian origin.
