Presentation of Candidates

5815. (Then the appointed minister shall bring the candidates and present them to the General Superintendent, saying:)

I present (read names) to be commissioned as ministers in The Wesleyan Church.

(Then the presiding minister (2016 Wesleyan Discipline:3091; 2016 Wesleyan Discipline:5805) shall say unto the people:)

Dear friends, these are they whom we purpose, God willing, this day to commission as ministers. For, after due examination, we find that they are truly called to this function and ministry, and that they are qualified for the same.
