MEMBERSHIP
We believe church is more than a place you attend — it’s a spiritual family you belong to.
Membership is a meaningful step of commitment to Christ and to one another. It reflects a desire to grow in faith, live in biblical community, and partner together in the mission God has given our church.
Becoming a member is not about obligation. It is about alignment, accountability, and shared purpose.

What it means to be a member?
Church membership is a covenant relationship — a commitment to walk together in faith, unity, and service.
A member of our church:
Has made a personal profession of faith in Jesus Christ
Has been baptized in water (or desires to be baptized)
Agrees with our statement of faith and core biblical beliefs
Commits to living in alignment with Scripture
Desires to grow spiritually and contribute to the life of the church
Membership affirms that this is your church home — a place where you are known, supported, and spiritually covered.
What Is an Active Member?
An active member is someone who is engaged in the life and mission of the church.
Active membership includes:
Regular attendance at worship services
Participation in church gatherings and ministry opportunities
Support of the church through prayer, service, and giving
A lifestyle that reflects biblical values and Christian witness
Active members may participate in church business meetings, vote on church matters, and serve in leadership roles as outlined in our bylaws.
If a member becomes inactive for a season, we seek restoration and reconnection — not removal. Our heart is always relationship and spiritual health.
Giving: Worship, Not Dues
We do not have membership dues.
We believe in biblical tithing and offerings as an act of worship and obedience to God. Giving is voluntary and prayerful, not pressured or transactional.
How to Become a Member
If you feel called to make our church your home, we would be honored to walk with you.

Attending services regularly
Completing a baptism class
Meeting with our pastor
Becoming baptized
We encourage you to pray and seek God’s direction as you consider membership. Our desire is not simply to add names to a list, but to shepherd hearts well.
