The Mennonite Church USA, is an Anabaptist Christian denomination in the United States. The abbreviation, MCUSA is not officially used by the denomination because of the confusion with MCC US, another Anabaptist organization. Although the organization is a recent 2002 merger of the Mennonite Church and the General Conference Mennonite Church, the body has roots in the Radical Reformation of the 16th century. Total 2001 membership in the Mennonite Church USA was 120,381 members in 1,063 congregations, making it the largest of the Mennonite denominations in the United States. In 2013 membership had fallen to 97,737 members in 839 congregations.〔Bender, Harold S. and Beulah Stauffer Hostetler. "Mennonite Church (MC)." Global Anabaptist Mennonite Encyclopedia Online. January 2013. Web. 2 May 2015. http://gameo.org/index.php?title=Mennonite_Church_(MC)&oldid=120422〕 Pennsylvania remains the hub of the denomination, with over 300 congregations and over 40,000 members. There are also large numbers of members in Ohio, Indiana, Kansas, and Illinois.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 2000 Religious Congregations and Membership Study )〕 ==History==
