Pathway to Membership

While all believers in Jesus are “members” of His church, the Bethel Church family values the unique voice of “official members” who influence a variety of strategic ministry responsibilities ranging from the selection of elders and senior pastor to the approval of the budget, by-laws, and so forth. If you are interested in deepening your connection with the Bethel Church family, membership is a meaningful step to take!

The following pathway leads to becoming an official member:

Attend the About Bethel Class

This class covers our mission, beliefs, and ways to get involved, offered quarterly.

Attend the Christianity Explored Class

A 4 week class that gives you time and space to consider the big questions of life and to explore the life of the person at the heart of Christian faith – Jesus Christ, offered at least twice a year.

Read "I Am a Church Member" booklet

Read the booklet entitled, I Am a Church Member by Thom S. Rainer (available for purchase in the Bethel Office).
