Re: UPC District board suing church in MS.?
Initially it looks like the District Board support was in name only. How much involvement did the district have in trying to keep the church in the "fold"? Are district officials making plans to put another church in that area? Initially, it looks like there wasn't much fight from the district.

It was thrown out because the pastor had followed disaffiliation procedures and the church bylaws to the letter, and had a majority vote (albeit a slim one).
