Pathway to Membership

Staff Leader: Emily Evans

 

Growing a church is not just about collecting more people; it’s about connecting people. Whether you’ve been visiting for weeks, attending for months, or involved for years, we would be delighted to help you feel even more connected to the Trietsch family of faith!
Trietsch has implemented a new system of joining: “Trietsch’s Pathway to Membership”

 

Membership - Option 1

Connections Class

Held 1st - 4th Sundays, Bi-Monthly

9:30 a.m. in Room 160
Membership Sunday is the 4th Sunday at 9:30 or 11 a.m.
Remaining dates for 2012 -

  • May 6, 13 & 20, with Membership Sunday on May 27
  • August 5, 12 & 19, with Membership Sunday on August 26 (July skipped due to holiday)
  • October 7, 14 & 21, with Membership Sunday on October 28

The Connections Class runs for 4 weeks in a Come, Grow, Serve format and is taught by Rev. Joe Shafer. It is held bi-monthly at 9:30 a.m. and usually starts on the first Sunday of the month, bi-monthly. (Due to holidays sometimes months skip or the class begins on a different Sunday, please check dates above to be sure).

If you’ve been considering becoming a member or would simply like to know more about Trietsch, we invite you to join us in the Library for this class. Membership Sunday will be on the 4th week of class (unless otherwise noted) and class participants will be welcomed into membership.

  • Week one is devoted to our church history, membership and welcoming ministries.

  • Week two focuses on discipleship and fellowship opportunities at Trietsch.

  • Week three will discuss spiritual gifts and how they can be used for service in and out of the church.

  • Week four, is Membership Sunday. If you would like to join the church after completing the Class, participants are welcomed into membership during worship in week four at either the 9:30 or 11 a.m. service. This allows the congregation to see and welcome our new members. You are not required to join at the end of the class.

Whether you are planning to join Trietsch or are already a member, we encourage you to take this time to attend the Connections Class and find out more about the church. Ask questions and discover why membership is a vital part of the church. Meet new people and get to know some of our pastors.

To sign up for the class, contact Emily Evans at ext. 204 or emilye@tmumc.org.

 

Membership - Option 2
For those that would rather not attend the Connections Class before joining can take the second option in the Pathway, to meet individually with one of our pastors to discuss membership and your commitment.

If you would like to take the second option of the Pathway to Membership, to meet with a pastor, contact Peggy Zappavigna at ext. 208 or peggyz@tmumc.org.
