Minister: There are those who have found Christ in some other branch of His Church, but who now desire to transfer their membership to The Wesleyan Church, and who present themselves for reception as members by transfer. To them we address this question:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Minister: Dear friends, in transferring your covenant relation to this branch of Christ’s church, you again renew your vows of church fellowship. Relying upon the grace of God, you promise to walk in all His commandments and ordinances, and to seek His service as your highest joy. You promise to submit to the rules and The Discipline of The Wesleyan Church; to strive earnestly for its peace, purity, and growth in grace, and to walk with all its members in love and Christian faithfulness. Do you sincerely devote yourselves to be the Lord’s and do you hereby renew your covenant with the church of Jesus Christ by joining yourselves to this fellowship of believers?&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Transferee: I do.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
(If no student members are being received the minister shall skip and go directly to [[5580]])&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
