CALLED TO BELONG

One of the deepest desires of each of us is to have fellowship with others. This is especially true of new Christians who seek to walk in newness of life. Such fellowship can be found through membership in the local church. Church membership means mutual benefits and responsibilities for both the church and the member.

My responsibility to my church

• Faithfully attend its services.

• Be aware of the total church program at home and abroad and support it by prayer.

• Live a consistent Christian life.

• Serve in the church and its outreach according to my abilities.

• Share my Christian testimony by word and life on a person-to-person basis.

• Support its work by the methods of tithing (giving a tenth of my income) and offerings.

My Church’s Responsibility to me

• Minister to my spiritual needs, especially through the preaching of the Word.

• Assist me with godly counsel, especially in times of decision, stress, and difficulty.

• Provide me with opportunities for Christian fellowship.

• Serve me and members of my family in matters of religious instruction.

• Sustain me by the prayers and concern of pastors and fellow believers in any of the distressing circumstances of life.

• Be a sound steward of my financial and personal investments in the kingdom of God.
