The organisation of the Methodist Church of Great Britain is based on the principle of connexionalism. This means that British Methodism,from its inception under John Wesley (1703–1791),has always laid strong emphasis on mutual support,in terms of ministry,mission and finance,of one local congregation for another. No singular church community has ever been seen in isolation either from its immediately neighbouring church communities or from the centralised national organisation. Wesley himself journeyed around the country,preaching and establishing local worshipping communities,called "societies",often under lay leadership. Soon these local communities of worshipping Christians formalised their relationships with neighbouring Methodist communities to create "circuits",and the circuits and societies contained within them,were from the very beginning 'connected' to the centre and Methodism's governing body,the annual Conference. Today,societies are better known as local churches,although the concept of a community of worshipping Christians tied to a particular location,and subdivided into smaller cell groups called "classes",remains essentially based on Wesley's societies.
