Presbytery of Liberia's Decision

The 148th session of the Presbytery of Liberia resolved to terminate their constitutional union as a constituent presbytery of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. According to the Confession Faith, Article 8.5c, the resolution will be lodged with Tennessee Synod for action. The Presbytery of Liberia's desire is to be known as the Presbyterian Church o Liberia with the intent that they will be able to affiliate with all Bible believing churches, including the Cumberland Presbyterian Church. The Board of Missions and the Presbytery of Liberia are thankful for the meaningful relationship shared during more than 30 years. We trust that meaningful partnerships in ministry will continue in the future in a fraternal framework.
