Pennsylvania also has the largest concentration of Moravians (oldest Protestant religion) in North America, centered in Bethlehem, Pa.
The Quakers and Baptists had a large following during colonial times as well as the Episcopal and Presbyterian Churches. The largest religion, is the Roman Catholic Church and the United Methodists are the largest Protestant faith. The Episcopal church is still influential in the larger cities and suburbs of Philadelphia. Because of a large Black population, the Baptists are one of the largest groups in the state. The oldest Lutheran Church is in Philadelphia.
