They have been ordaining them, but now it's codified as a denomination-wide official policy that it's allowed - big difference there. Caveat, though - at present it's only at the GA level. In order for it to take effect, it must be ratified by (a majority of?) the presbyteries and then again at the next GA.

I didn't suggest the RP churches simply because they're an hour and a half or more from Davenport, but of course those are also options if the drive is acceptable.
