If
you are interested in becoming a member of MCC, we ask you to
do three things:
STEP
ONE:
Get to know us! After
visiting us, you should take some time to get to know us, what
we believe, and what we do as a church. We also want the chance
to get to know you better! One of the best ways you
can get to know our members is by attending one of our Bible
studies, and we recommend that you do this for several weeks
before deciding whether or not to join MCC.
STEP
TWO:
Make your intentions clear!
After you are sure that God is calling you to join this church,
you can let us know that you want to become a member by telling
us on an Sunday or at any of our Bible studies. We would also
appreciate it if you can take a little time to visit with one
of our church's servant leaders, to give us the chance to get
to know you better and to pray with you.
STEP
THREE:
Make a commitment! It
is important for a church to know exactly who their members
are, and who is a sincere and committed member of that church.
That is why it is important for every person who wants to
become a member of MCC to attend our Welcome
to the Family class. This is a seminar that will
help you and other new members come to a full understanding
of what we believe and what we do as a church. It also gives
you the chance to ask any questions you still have. This class
is offered on a regular basis throughout the year. All baptized
believers in Christ who have attended this Welcome Class are
then asked to sign a "Membership
Covenant"
if they want to be a member of this church. This agreement
is a simple statement of faith and commitment, and reminds us
all that the decision to join together as a church is a covenant
to be one body, united in Christ.
