Do not confuse the PC(USA) with the PCA. The PCA is still committed to biblical marriage.
Reformation news.
What is th penalty for leaving? Seems like the PCUSA was trying to curb the exodus by financially penalizing congregations for leaving.
I am waiting for Atlanta’s huge Peachtree Pres to take a hike away from PCUSA.
Join a PCA church. Presbyterian the way I grew up .
Congratulations: Last Sunday the elders at our church unanimously voted to leave Presbyterian Churches USA as well. Our church is the First Presbyterian Church in Seattle. At one time it was the largest Presbyterian Church in the country and was started before Washington became a state. We will be joining ECO, the Evangelical Covenant Order of Presbyterians. The elders got up in front of the congregation where they explained why they made their decision by reading the last four verses of Revelations and stated why they felt Presbyterian Churches USA is failing to fallow the teaching of the Bible.
Seems hard to me to continue to support a church which doesn’t seem to have a problem with cross-dressers following little girls into ladies’ rooms. But then I’m not part of that ‘church’.
2,200 member church would hardly be considered “large” in Texas.
why don’t they just return to Catholicism where they came from, and actually belong??
“Slightly less liberal” is probably more accurate than “more conservative”.
More here - apparently, the congregation has had to get a Temporary Injuntion against the Prebytery:

The Presbytery has threatened to remove the pastor and session.
