When individuals join the church, they are asked if they will support the church through our vows of membership. These vows ask that members will support the church in five ways:
•With their prayers–-we expect members to pray for the church and its members.
•With their presence–-we expect members to be present in worship and to consider joining a small group.
•With their gifts–-we expect members to give back to the church through their tithes and offerings.
•With their service–-we expect members to serve within and/or outside of the church so that we can be the hands of feet of Christ in this world!
•With their witness–-we expect members to share their Christian faith with others through words and actions.

What about baptism?
In the United Methodist Church we believe that baptism is God's gift to God's people. Therefore, we accept the baptism that you may have received when you were a child or that you may have received in a church of another denomination. Membership in the United Methodist Church is given to baptized adults or confirmed youth. If you are an adult who has not previously been baptized and you would like to join the church, please contact one of the pastors and we would love to meet with you to discuss your faith journey, baptism, and membership in the church.

What about my kids? What is Confirmation?
When your family joins our congregation, adults and confirmed youth are full members. Younger children are preparatory members. This allows the church to join with your family in teaching your children about the faith. We offer the Confirmation program to youth beginning in the sixth grade. In this class youth learn about the faith, the church, and are offered the opportunity to take the vows of membership at the end of the program. The program is called Confirmation because it is designed to help youth "confirm" the faith that their parents and the community have taught them during their childhood.
