Judge Rules In Favor of Breakaway Groups from Episcopal Abomination

A Fairfax County judge dealt the Episcopal Church and the Diocese of Virginia a third defeat in their efforts to retain millions of dollars of church property being held by 11 breakaway congregations.

Rev. V. Gene Robinson as bishop of New Hampshire.
