Membership Information


We would love to have you as a member of First United Methodist Church!  We believe that any baptized person is baptized into the “whole” church.  Any person who has been confirmed or joined a church has joined the whole church.  The local church is where we are fed and challenged to grow as disciples.  There is a place for you at First United Methodist Church!
 
You may join the church any Sunday.  You may join by transfer of membership if you have an active membership in a church somewhere.  You may have your membership restored if you have no active membership.  If you have never joined a church, you may join by professing your own faith in Jesus Christ.  If you have never been baptized, we would be thrilled to share in that exciting time with you.
 
If you want to learn more about the United Methodist Church and First Church, you are invited to a “First Discovery” Class. They are held about every six weeks.  You can find more information in the church newsletters.  Please contact Stefanie Hecht, Director of Worship & Leadership Development by E-Mail at stefanieh@fumc-cs.org , or by telephone at 719.471.8522 x237 for class dates, for further information and to register. Childcare is available.

 
The time to join each week is when we stand to sing the final hymn or song.  Please fill out a membership cards found in pew racks, and bring them forward to the altar.  There a pastor will ask you to reaffirm your vows and to be faithful to this United Methodist Church with your “prayers, presence, gifts, and service.”  We take care of all the paperwork!
 
God loves you just the way you are! God wants all of us to grow in faithfulness and to deepen our faith.  Come join this community of faith on an exciting faith journey.  Together we can be the people and the church God wants us to be!
