Membership in a church is a very important decision and should be made with a great deal of care and prayer. Those who are making a first-time commitment to Jesus as their Lord and Savior will be paired with a Mentor, and together with that Mentor and guidance from the Pastor, will take a course called Making Disciples.
TRANSFERRING MEMBERS... Those who wish to transfer to Bethel from another church will be asked to attend an Elders meeting where a formal request is made. A public announcement is made during the church service accepting the transfer.
BAPTISM... Those who wish to request infant or adult baptism, will need to meet with the Elders to talk about the meaning of baptism. Baptisms are performed during a Sunday morning service. For more information see Sacraments.
