Membership at Grace
Membership is not about privilege or prestige. It is not some elevated level of access with secret insider benefits. Membership recognizes and responds to the call of Christian discipleship in the context of gospel-centered community. It is an affirmation and agreement to sacrificially contribute to the good of the body, rather than merely take from it. It is a formalization of that which already implicitly exists.
Four Steps to Becoming a Member
Exploration: Plan to attend an upcoming Explore Grace class.
Personal Inventory: After completing Explore Grace, using a brief questionnaire, the potential member privately responds to the material we have considered in these sessions.
Confirmation: During this phase a church leader will interview you as a candidate for membership. Any concerns or unusual circumstances affecting membership at this time will be discussed. The church leader and prospective member determine together whether or not membership is appropriate at this time.
Celebration: Once you are affirmed, all that is left to do is to celebrate. You will be formally welcomed and introduced to the congregation as a new participating member of our church family.
