Becoming a member with our congregation is important because it is our public commitment to you and you with us, to be a Christian family where we vow to grow together in our faith in Christ. We promise to glorify the Lord with our lives, and we become accountable to participate in our congregation with our prayers, presence, gifts, witness, and service.
As the United Methodist Church organization explains: “For United Methodists, membership means being part of a fellowship of followers of Jesus Christ who seek to make the world more like the Kingdom of God. Being a member means becoming as much a part of the church, the body of Christ, as our limbs are members of our own physical bodies. Just as our bodies are formed in the waters of the womb, so we become part of the body of Christ through the waters of baptism.”
Let the pastors know that you desire to join into membership by filling out the Sunday worship bulletin insert or by contacting any of the pastors through email or by calling the church office.
The pastors will set a Sunday date with you when you will be invited to join by coming forward during the worship service, where the pastor will introduce you, ask you about joining, and pray for you. If you would like to become a member in a more private setting, or on another day besides on a Sunday, we will schedule that for you.
