The Moravian Church traces its roots to the Unity of the Brethren, a Christian movement founded in the 15th century in Bohemia (now part of the Czech Republic) by followers of theologian John Huss. After facing persecution, the movement largely went underground until its revival in the 18th century under the leadership of Count Nicolaus Zinzendorf in Herrnhut, Saxony. Zinzendorf emphasized a personal relationship with Christ and community living, leading to the establishment of the Moravian Church as a distinct denomination. The Moravian Church is known for its missionary work and commitment to education and social justice.
