From the time of the late 1760s, two Methodist lay preachers emigrated to America and formed societies. Philip Embury began the work in New York. Soon, Captain Webb from the British Army aided him. He formed a society in Philadelphia and itinerated along the coast. By 1770, two Methodist missionaries arrived from the British Connexion. They were Richard Boardman and Joseph Pilmoor.

The Schenkels' involvement with Methodist Health System spans decades. Robert S. Folsom and William Weatherford initially approached Mr. Schenkel in the 1980s to help them increase Methodist's visibility to the Dallas business community. Now, 20 years later, the Schenkels' generous support has helped Methodist Health System expand clinical services and improve the lives of thousands of people in need. Pete Schenkel has served on the Methodist Health System corporate board for over 15 years, and currently serves as chairman of the Methodist Health System Foundation board.

The early Methodists reacted against perceived apathy in the Church of England, became open-air preachers and established Methodist societies wherever they went. These societies were made up of individual classes - intimate groups where individuals were encouraged to confess their sins to one another and to build each other up. They ... took part in love feasts which allowed for the sharing of testimony, a key feature of early Methodism.

Dr. Martin Koonsman, a surgeon on the medical staff at Methodist Dallas who uses the SAVI device, recalls the case of one patient. "She was a woman in her late 50's with a small tumor close to the skin," says Dr. Koonsman. "Because of the nature of her job, spending a lot of time away from work would have been significant for her, " he says, adding that the SAVI device was the best choice for the patient. She has since returned to work and is doing extremely well. "For working women, SAVI is a particularly good option," says Dr. Koonsman.
