Map and headline:  Des Moines Register, 5/24/2023

The largest share of churches departing from the Iowa Conference — 28 — serves northeast Iowa, three of which are in Dubuque and two are in Marion, according to the resolution voted on Tuesday. Many are in small towns or rural areas, though churches in Sioux City, Davenport and Council Bluffs voted to split. Grimes United Methodist Church is the only one in the Des Moines metro to leave.
