  • Congregations with issues of conscience in the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America need a gracious model for being dismissed to other denominations. This thesis explains the need and the theological implications of pursuing and implementing. It proposes and tests a model for a dismissal process and then evaluates that model. The model proposed consists of a four stage process: discernment, negotiation, dismissal, and reception. The thesis includes a case study on congregational anxiety using three congregations, one entering a discernment process, one amidst a discernment process and a third two years after being dismissed.
