Court supports break-away Presbyterian church in Kenya

It is being reported by Kenya Times and AllAfrica.com that a judge in Nairobi has put a hold on the cancellation of the certification of the Presbyterian Mission Outreach Church, a group that split from the Presbyterian Church of East Africa last year.  The stories report that the Kenyan Registrar of Societies issued the church their certification last December 29 after a background check to be sure that the organization was not a security threat.  The Assistant Registrar subsequently issued a letter canceling the certification saying that the church was a threat to existing peace.

The judge issued a 90 day stay on the cancellation and will hear additional arguments on March 27.
