Virginia Lawyers Weekly

The Episcopal Diocese of Virginia says it has reached a legal settlement with two of the 11 churches that voted to leave the diocese in disagreement over homosexuality and other theological issues.

The settlement with Potomac Falls Church in Potomac Falls and Christ the Redeemer Church in Chantilly was announced last month. The diocese says the mission churches, which do not hold any real property, will make a payment to the diocese as part of the settlement ending the litigation between the parties.

Under the agreement, the diocese will release the two churches from any claims or future liability arising from the litigation. The settlement does not include the other nine churches that voted to leave the diocese.
