At the September 15, 2006, meeting of the board of the Witherspoon Society a statement was issued urging the unity of the PC(USA).  Specifically they say: "We regret that some have decided to leave the Presbyterian Church (USA) and hope that any such action will not be permanent. We caution against giving in to a spirit of anarchy and misinterpretation by ignoring the procedures clearly spelled out in the Book of Order for pastors and congregations to leave the Presbyterian Church (USA)."
