Either meet with or write a letter to your local bishop and inform him that you wish to be removed from membership. Write a letter to or call the church's office and ask to withdraw membership and remove your information from their records."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. The Church Board can recommend removing a member, but the vote is then taken to the church at-large in a business meeting to vote on the removal of members. It is reasonable to conclude that the individual has liberty to move congregation, as long as it is to a true church and they are not under discipline. We must sometimes encourage the congregation to permit members to leave. Even if we don't fully agree with their reasons for leaving. I have found some churches deny the withdrawal of membership while under church discipline.
