Two of six girls taken from Tony Alamo Christian Ministries properties in Fouke, Ark., in September will remain in foster care, but if their parents sever ties with the church, reunification is possible, Miller County Circuit Judge Jim Hudson ruled late Friday.

"For those parents who are still members, there is a requirement to sever financial, residential, economic and employment ties with the ministry," said Hudson, who made the decision after listening to three days of testimony.
