. Jacob Albrecht was a German farmer who organized classes for the Methodist church and saw many new converts. Some of these wished to worship in German so they formed The Evangelical Association in 1816, which steadily grew in numbers. In 1891 a group broke away and became the United Evangelical Church. However in 1922 the two groups re-united and became the Evangelical Church. It is this group that first began work in Canada forming the Canada Conference.
