You can always write a formal letter to your local church board stating your request and the reasons why. Dear Chairman Board of Elders,.I am writing to withdraw my membership from Grace Community Church. This letter is my formal resignation from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and it is effective immediately. "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. Transfer of Experience Record(form NUCS 4460). Pastoring a church in the Bible Belt has exposed me to some interesting cultural experiences. In the following six months, the last leg from Sacramento to San Francisco Bay was completed. Wish more guests filled out your connection cards? Struggling with getting members to fill out a volunteer form?
