How to Become a Member

Anyone can become a full member of our church in one of the following ways:

Through Confirmation

Any baptized child in the sixth grade or higher who completes Confirmation Classes taught by the ministers and staff and who takes the vows of membership can be confirmed as a full member.

By Profession of Faith

Adults who have not been baptized can become members by participating in a short ritual professing their faith in Christ as their personal Savior, by being baptized, and by taking the vows of membership.

By Transfer from Another Denomination

A member in good standing of any denomination who has been baptized may become a member by supplying a proper certificate of transfer from that person’s former church, and by taking our membership vows. If you provide the church name and address, the office can request the certificate of transfer for you.

By Transfer from Another United Methodist Church

A member in good standing of any United Methodist Church who has been baptized can simply transfer her or his membership to Central via a standard letter sent from our church office to the person’s former parish.
