The United Methodist Church came into being in 1968, when the Methodist Church merged with the United Brethren Church. Methodist ministers first preached in any sort of building. Circuit riders, Asbury and Coke being two of them, traveled by horseback to preach the gospel and establish churches until there was scarcely any crossroad community in the United States without a Methodist presence. The Methodist Episcopal Church, the M.E. Church, the predecessor to the Methodist Church that merged above, officially began at the Baltimore Christmas Conference in 1784. Francis Asbury and Thomas Coke were the first bishops elected.
