Peters Creek Church votes to leave PCUSA

Link
    At a standing room only church service this morning, the congregation of Peters Creek Presbyterian Church voted 273-86 to be dismissed from the Presbyterian Church (USA) into the Evangelical Presbyterian Church.

Thats a 76% majority if my math is right. I think if it hadn't been 75% the church would have faced the administrative committee taking over the congregation. So that was a close vote.

Sorry to see them go to the EPC. I honestly believe these congregations are not doing very much research into the denomination they are joining.

I think they'd be happier in the PCA but...

At least they won't be stuck in a denomination that will hold their property for ransom if they decide to move again in the future.
