  and empowered by the concurrent vote  of  two-thirds  of  its  qualified
  voters  present  and  voting therefor, at a meeting regularly called for
  that purpose, and of two-thirds of all its trustees and by  the  written
  consent  of  the  resident  bishop  and  the district superintendent, to
  direct the transfer and conveyance of  any  of  its  property,  real  or
  personal,  which  it now has or may hereafter acquire, to any religious,
  charitable or missionary corporation connected with The United Methodist
  denomination and incorporated by or organized under any law of the state

  or  conveyance;  and  upon  the  same  being  made, the title to and the
  ownership and right of possession of the  property  so  transferred  and
  conveyed  shall  be  vested  in  and conveyed to such grantee; provided,

  any existing claim or  lien  against  any  property  so  transferred  or
  conveyed,  or  any  action at law or legal proceeding; and such transfer
  shall be subject, in respect to the amount of property the said  grantee
  may  take and hold, to the restrictions and limitations of all laws then
  in force.
