From UM News Service and Wisconsin Annual Conference reports
In Decision 1459, released March 1, 2023, the Judicial Council affirmed the part of Bishop Hee-Soo Jung’s decision of law that supported the Wisconsin Conference’s church disaffiliation process. The Question of Law concerning six aspects of the Wisconsin Conference Disaffiliation Policy adopted by the 2022 Annual Conference was raised at that session by a conference clergy member.
The Wisconsin Conference requires a disaffiliating church to “explain how the current Discipline or actions or inactions of the annual conference have affected the mission and unity of the congregation.”
