become a church member

At my church we took a class about membership, it was a great way to meet some people. I also like that as a member they want you to be active with volunteering and growing in your faith.

i’ve been going to the same church since i was 5, i’m 23. and finally became a member 2 weeks ago.

it’s been over 20 years since I stopped going to the church (across town) where I grew up, because of college, grad. school, career, baby – today I transferred my membership to the terrific church (I had been attending for a year) just down the street – I already feel more at peace – woohooo!

I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and I haven’t been going to Church. Sorry scratch that I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and I hadn’t been going to Church.

But now I am. Regular as clockwork and guess what… its great! My daughter and I are loving the fellowship and the spirit and what is better the good feeling inside…better than chocolate!

Being apart of a Church stregthens my faith – it is where i find support and love whenever I need it most. I love that when I walk through the doors of church i feel at home – cuz that is where any christian should find the most peace and love. I would reccommend for any christian to make sure you get connected in a good church that will inspire your growth in God and will allow you good fellowship. :D

My wife and I are Christians, yet we have such a hard time finding other Christians we identify with. We like and appreciate hymns as worship, but feel outcast at churches like that because we don’t look “normal”. Not to mention, I hate how everyone sings hymns in monotone voices as if they are completely bored by it. Have you ever looked at their faces? They aren’t worshipping their Lord, they’re (barely) singing because someone told them to turn to a number in a book! We also like more modern worship styles, but feel like too much of contemporary worship is generic or even theologically unsound. Plus, we find ourselves distanced from other young Christians who seem to push the boundaries a little too much for our comfort. I’m no prude…I like a beer every once in a while, I love punk rock and have for 15 years now…but some people are indistinguishable from non-Christians (and in some cases worse!) outside of begrudingly admitting they sort of believe in Jesus. Finally, if we do manage to find contemporary worship that we like, we end up disliking the pastor’s preaching style! Urgh. If only we could manage to find a church that is accepting of us, with inspiring worship and strong but open-minded believers and a great pastor. Indiana may not be a hotbed of unique church experiences, but there’s got to be one out there…

I moved away from home about 1 year and a half ago and becoming a member of a church and getting involved with it has really helped me find a “home” in this new land of Fredericksburg, VA. Finding a church body to live with and grow with is invaluable.

I am looking for a new church that I can call home. I attend church…but I am not a “member”. So, my goal is to declare my membership to a church.
