From the WashTimes:

An Episcopal congregation in Woodbridge whose members were unhappy with liberal trends in the Episcopal Church suddenly dissolved itself last week, leaving the Episcopal Diocese of Virginia with a $420,000 bill from the property's mortgage.
The members of Christ Our Lord Episcopal Church, a mission congregation founded in 1992, has since reconstituted under the Anglican Diocese of North Kigezi in Uganda as Christ Our Lord Anglican Church. It is the third mission to leave the diocese because of the 2003 consecration of New Hampshire Bishop V. Gene Robinson as the world's first openly homosexual bishop, but the first to abandon its property. ...full

It's doubtful there will be a negative financial impact since land in Northern VA is getting harder and harder to come by. The diocese could sell the land for a tidy profit if they so choose.

Too bad the congregation couldn't make the big leap back to Rome. Because - how much more of a leap would that be, when you get down to the brass tacks of Scripture & Tradition?
