Cumberland Presbyterian Church
http://www.cumberland.org/center/about-us/
Cumberland Presbyterian congregations are located throughout the United States as well as in several other countries (Japan, Hong Kong, Colombia, etc.) but are primarily located in the American South, with strong concentrations in Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, Missouri, southern Illinois, Arkansas, and Texas. The Cumberland Presbyterian denomination has a socially progressive tradition. Cumberland Presbyterians were among the first denominations to admit women to their educational institutions and to accept them in leadership roles including the ordained clergy.
The Cumberland Presbyterian Church denomination was founded in 1810 in Dickson county, Tennessee (near Nashville), by a group of Presbyterians who were heading west to settle the frontier.
Born out of the early 1800’s Great Revival with a desire to go out and reach all that need Christ, the denomination has retained that “whosever will come” approach to evangelism and outreach.
The denomination has approximately 670 congregations worldwide, with ministries in 18 countries. The largest concentration of churches is in Tennessee, followed by Alabama, Texas, Kentucky and Arkansas.
