The Presbyterian Church traces its roots back to the early days of the Protestant movement, to the Scot preacher John Knox and the Swiss preacher John Calvin. Spread across Canada and the United States the psalm reading Presbyterian Protestant church has been a solid conservative element in the wide spectrum of Christianity.
