Although Congregationalists believe that the Christian Church is essentially a gathered community of believers, their important ecumenical contribution is their insistence on the primacy of the local church. The movement came out of the Separatists of the 16th-century English Reformation. Persecution drove the Congregationalists to Holland and the United States (the Pilgrim Fathers in 1620).
