Why Should I Join The Church?

This is a question asked often within our society. "Why can't I just attend, receive the good that God has for me and not become formally involved as a member. What value is there in church membership?"

These are honest and sincere questions which need to be answered! In fact, you may be considering these questions right now. If so, I would suggest that you open your heart to the Spirit of God. If Jesus Christ is your Savior and Lord, simply be open to Him. He will lovingly and gently lead you in the way you should go. Your life is no longer yours; you have given it to Him (II Cor. 5:15). Simply obey whatever he is calling you to be. We would invite you to prayerfully consider becoming an active member of this church and join the body of

Christ as a participating, sharing, caring, giving, loving member. We believe that you need the church and the church also needs you. Christ's Body can never be what God wants it to be until every follower of Jesus becomes an active, contributing member. You are needed!

May our Lord give you wisdom, grace and courage as you carefully and prayerfully consider this important step.
