How to Join the Family of Third Reformed Church

"To all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God." (John 1:12)

 

Becoming A Member At Third Reformed Church

 

Membership in a congregation is a commitment to be part of a family of believers where worship, fellowship, learning and serving the Lord take place. It is a public commitment that acknowledges that Jesus is our Lord and Savior and should be made with careful thought and prayer.

 

We believe that the church is a group of believers who encourage and support each other in the challenge of being a fully devoted follower of Christ. Plain and simple: Christians need each other!

 

If you believe it is God's will for you to join the family of Third Church, or if you would simply like to learn more about the church to help you make that decision, we encourage you to register for the next:

 

 

The How

 

Connections (New Members Class):

 

An informational seminar. Learn about the History, Mission, Structure, Beliefs, and Strategy of Third. Meet the pastoral and program staff, learn about the various ministries at Third and discover what it means to be a positional and a participating member of the Church.

 

This seminar is intended to orient both long time attenders/members and those who are new to Third to our vision and values. The class is a requirement for membership but you are not obligated to join after you attend.
