How do I become a member of the Free Methodist Church?

Privilege and Responsibility

Membership in the church is a high privilege and responsibility. We believe
the Covenant required of members is consistent with the teaching of the
written Word of  God. Faithfulness to the covenant is evidence of the
individual member’s desire to sustain a saving relationship with Jesus
Christ as Lord, to bring glory to God, to advance the cause of God on earth,
to preserve the unity of the body of Christ and to cherish the fellowship of
the Free Methodist Church.

Members of the Free Methodist Church, trusting in the enablement of the Holy Spirit and seeking the support of the other members of the church, make the following confession and commitments as a covenant with the Lord and the church.

The Confession and Commitment
We confess Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. By faith, we walk with Him. We
commit ourselves to know Him in His full sanctifying grace.
