The Evangelical United Brethren Church (EUB) was a North American Protestant denomination from 1946 to 1968 with Arminian theology, roots in the Mennonite and German Reformed, and communities, and close ties to Methodism. In 1968, the United States section of the EUB merged with the Methodist Church to form the United Methodist Church.
