Diocesan officials want the Rev. Robert Scheiblhofer and company to leave the historic church at 129 N. 40th St. and the rectory next door, now that the parish has rejected the authority of the Episcopal Church. The diocese contends it is the rightful owner of the property under church rules and state law.<\/p>\n<p>Scheiblhofer and other parish leaders say they aren&#8217;t going anywhere.
