Membership

So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.
—Ephesians 2:19-22

In any relationship dating is fine, but marriage is better. Formal membership is the way that you say to the church, “I want to be a part of this church – I believe her doctrine, I love her people, I want to serve in her ministries and I want to have a say in her direction.” Likewise the church says to you, “We want you to be a part of this group. We love you. We are going to help you walk closely with Jesus.” It’s a mutual commitment. It’s good for you – it’s good for the church.

So in order for our church to become a strong and effective pillar for Truth in our community and in the world, we recognize the need for commitment and accountability that only formal membership brings. Although people are free to minister at Pillar Church without membership, several key ministry positions require this level of commitment. The path to membership and consideration for certain leadership positions is our Membership Class.

Our Membership Class is presented by the church leadership several times each year. Completing the class does not automatically make you a member of Pillar but the class is a prerequisite for those who wish to become members. Our goal is that by the conclusion of the course, you will have a clear understanding of the direction and structure of our church as well as knowledge of the benefits and expectations of membership.  Here is the link to register for the Membership Class:  https://pillarjax.churchcenter.com/groups/membership/membership-class

In the Membership Class Guide there is an information form for those who wish to become members. When completed simply hand it in to one of the leaders you met during the course.
