I'm not exactly sure if it was a daughter work. I think it was but I can't remember for sure. But back when I was in church our youth pastor left to start another church. It was in a different town, about 45 minutes away.
There isn't much fellowship between the 2 churches, they are both upci though and both believe pretty much the same way as far as i can tell. It was only for a small time that it seemed it may have negatively impacted the original church.
Of course we were all highly discouraged if not entirely forbidden from going up there to even visit the church for the longest time.
