No One Stands Alone.
Having trusted in Christ alone as my Savior and Lord, and being in agreement with the Vision, Values and Beliefs of Christ Church, I believe I have been led by God to join this church family. By God’s grace and the Holy Spirit’s power, I commit to the following:
1. With God’s help, I will share in the life of my church
-
- by faithfully attending services
-
- by growing in godliness through prayer, the scriptures and fellowship
-
- by praying for its growth, its health, its people and its leaders
- by giving financially with generosity and grace, as God has given to me

2. With God’s help, I will protect the peace and unity of my church
-
- by committing to love and truth in my relationships with others
-
- by refusing to gossip and instead speaking well of others
- by following godly leadership, submitting to their care and correction

3. With God’s help, I will serve the ministry of my church
-

- by discovering my gifts and talents and using them in ministry

4. With God’s help, I will be “on mission” with my church
-
- by developing friendships with and inviting the un-churched to attend
-
- by becoming prepared to share my faith
-
- by warmly welcoming our guests
