Highland Park UMC leaders urge members to vote on leaving denomination
Original: Highland Park UMC leaders recommend church members vote to leave denomination
Leaders of Highland Park United Methodist Church in Dallas have recommended that congregants vote on whether the church should leave the United Methodist denomination. The recommendation puts a major split before the membership, reflecting the wave of departures and disputes dividing United Methodist congregations in recent years. A membership vote would decide whether the large church formally disaffiliates from the denomination.
Why now: The church's leadership recommendation sets up a consequential membership vote amid ongoing splits within the United Methodist Church.
