Presbyterian Churches leaving EPCEW

Sheffield

In the June issue of en, we reported that ‘the Lincoln congregation, a Sheffield plant, was also taken out of EPCEW [the Evangelical Presbyterian Church in England and Wales] by SPC [Sheffield Presbyterian Church]’.

We have been asked to make it clear that in fact all four congregations which left EPCEW had their own distinct Sessions, and all had their own congregational meetings, in which the members voted unanimously not to continue with EPCEW, and thus there was no sense in which LPC was ‘taken out of EPCEW by SPC’. We are happy to run this clarification from SPC.

We also apologise for using a photo from the SPC website which we now realise was copyrighted; it is not en’s policy to use copyrighted photographs without permission.
