How do you tell a church you are leaving?Jan
If you leave and don't give a reason, it is likely the pastor or someone on their team will contact you to see if there is a problem. Normally this is whether you have had your feelings hurt, etc, as they will want to attempt to resolve them. If you don't want this kind of follow up, just state that you feel it is your time to move on - or if you want to get into specifics, that while you do not have any special problem with the church, you feel you'd like to check out another church where you have a friend for a while. Then, if you don't feel that the other church is where you want to be after all, you can always return.
If only!!!!
I left a church after attending for more than 10 years, being a member of the worship team for most of that time, being in leadership, ministering on the side, all of it. Nobody contacted me, nobody asked.

That is far too common these days. And then leaders complain that people pick-and-choose churches without taking on loyal commitment.If only!!!!
