More Questions about the UMC

[svdbygrace]

I have been attending a UMC for almost two months now (4 liturgical seasons) and would like to know a few more things.


What do I have to do to become a United Methodist? I have been a Christian for quite sometime, and have been baptized (by the Baptists).

Thanks. God bless.

Talk to your pastor. The church may offer classes to let you know more about the UMC. They might also offer a new members class that would do the same thing.

technically, you only need approach the pastor and answer a couple of questions in front of the church at one of the worship services, Since you are already baptized, you would be joining on transfer from another Denomination and the questions are (my words, not the official ones) 1. Will you be loyal to the United Methodist Church and 2, will you be loyal to this congregation of the UMC and support it with your prayers, your presence, your gifts and your service.
But as has been mentioned, your pastor/church may require a membership class as well
