Pittsburgh Post Gazette Story:
- Beaver-Butler Presbytery
- Portersville Presbyterian Church to EPC
- 176-members
- voted 115-3
- Third Church to be dismissed
- assets appraised at $423,000
- tithe of that, $42,300
- There was no debate
- A voice vote of more than 100 commissioners, there were just a few dissenters.
The financial terms of the earlier dismissal of Chippewa United Presbyterian Church in Beaver Falls were appealed to a church court, so Chippewa remains in the presbytery pending a decision.
Washington Presbytery is in civil litigation with one (ed: Peters Creek UPC in Venetia, Pa?) that voted to leave without permission.
