You can become
a member of First UMC in one of the following ways:
Confession of Faith - the initial entrance into membership in the
church when you confess Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Click
here for more information.
Reaffirmation of Faith - renewing your initial confession of faith
after a period of inactivity, or not being on a church membership
roll.
Transfer of Membership - from another United Methodist Church or
a Christian church of another denomination. We recognize baptism
from all other Christian churches.
In each pew (Main Sanctuary) you will find a Friendship Folder,
when you sign in on the yellow visitor sheet, check the box labeled, "I
want to join." We will contact you with the starting date of
our next Steps class. Should you have any questions about joining,
contact Connie Mechem.
We want you to know us better when you join so we have a series
of classes designed to help you join us in every way. These are called
STEPS Classes. They meet four Sunday mornings at 9:45 a.m. in Room
7205.
STEP ONE (first Sunday) – Discovering Your Church Family
STEP TWO (second Sunday) – Desiring Spiritual Maturity
STEP THREE (third Sunday) – Determining Your Ministry
STEP FOUR (fourth Sunday) – Defining Your Mission
Come and see what it is all about. We believe that these classes
are ESSENTIALS to help you fully join in the life of the church.
Members of First UMC
act as mentors for new members, making sure they get introduced
to the many missions and ministries of First UMC, and helping them
find
a Sunday school class and an area in which to serve.
Call us at 667-0876 or email Connie Mechem fumcloveland@frii.com with your questions. We want you to be part of the First UMC Family!
