Why Be a Church Member? One can worship and study and participate in all church programs without ever “joining an organization.” So, why be a member? The best reason is because membership is our way of making a covenant with other Christians to join together in a concerted effort to proclaim and live in Christ. It is part of a “we are in this faith thing together” mentality. Membership also allows us to serve on all of the decision-making boards so that our voice can be added to others. It allows us to be part of setting a direction and determining a future. Membership allows you to VOTE at congregational meetings when big decisions need to be decided. You may be a FULL MEMBER or an ASSOCIATE MEMBER. An Associate Member is someone who wishes to remain a full member at another church, it may be in your home town or it could be another denomination, AND actively participate at the church where you currently live. Speak with (or e-mail) Margery to take the next step. 410-823-2485 INTERESTED IN JOINING TOWSON UNITED METHODIST CHURCH?
