Dear Chairman Board of Elders,. I am writing to withdraw my membership from Grace Community Church.Got my membership withdrawal letter. Write a long, nasty, mean-spirited letter to explain everything that they dislike about the church and articulate their own self-pity at length. I have the intention of writing and submitting a letter to the church I was a part of that would basically entail withdrawing my membership. "Transferring your letter" is more of a perfunctory act between churches who are merely shuffling members as though they are numbers on a score board. St. Barnabas Catholic Church 1427 Sixth Street Alameda, CA 94501. Office: (510) 522-8933. This article shows how the church council should announce such a withdrawal. Source: Clarion, 2012.
