I joined TNPC last month; however, I still need to write the letter officially terminating my membership at my parents' Methodist Church. Dear Chairman Board of Elders,.I am writing to withdraw my membership from Grace Community Church. 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 am no longer a member of this church. I do not need your permission, nor do I care whether or not you agree with my decision. "Signed,. Section 3. Termination. I have given this decision careful consideration. The primary controlling document is the Bible – the Word of God. God is opening doors we didn't expect, filling needs we didn't know existed, and just flat out showing up.
