BECOME A MEMBER
When people decide to become members, they commit to this local community of faith that provides encouragement and support as we do life together. Membership allows for a biblical degree of responsibility, service, and sacrifice to one another as brothers and sisters in Christ. The elders and leaders also pledge to care for the members through counsel, prayer, and teaching.
As you think about deciding to join the church, we would welcome the opportunity to discuss what it means to be a member, as well as our mission, basic beliefs, and theological distinctives. We want you to know exactly what it means to join and what is required before asking you to make a decision
THERE ARE TWO STEPS TO BECOMING A COVENANT MEMBER
1. PROFESSION OF FAITH AND BAPTISM
2. SIGNING THE COVENANT
Baptism is intended only for those who have professed faith in Jesus Christ. We baptize by immersion because it is not only the original significance of the word but also best symbolizes the reality to which baptism points—our death and resurrection in Christ. If you have not been baptized following salvation, we ask you to take this step before becoming a member.
The Membership Covenant outlines the expectations of what it means to live in a covenant with a local church. Once you fulfill the requirements of membership and sign the covenant, you are considered a member. Feel free to review the Membership Covenant and contact us with any questions.
