18-8. An applicant coming as a candidate from another denomination must present testimonials of his standing in that body and must become a member of a congregation in the Presbyterian Church in America. He shall then fulfill the requirements of applicants listed under BCO 18-2, as well as requirements placed upon those desiring to be licensed or to become an intern as set forth in BCO 19.

DIGEST: BCO 18-8 was a new paragraph, adopted in 1981 by the Ninth General Assembly [M9GA, 9-65, III, I, Item 5, p. 133]. We note a later and minor editorial change which condensed the text from the original wording, "as set forth in Chapter 19 of the BCO."
