To be honest, I thought this had been the case for years. In order for a preacher to go into another area and preach for a church that is non- UPC, he must first get the approval of the local UPC pastor and the DS. At least that is what I thought was the case.

I agree that this type of action is not new ... but as reported ... it appears that the DS was invigorated to take action .... by using newly passed Resolution 3 as his crutch when explaining his decision to the pastor.
