Why Membership?
Membership is acknowledging that you are part of the Stanley River of Life body of believers who is working together to accomplish our mission to Save the Lost, Worship the Lord and Disciple & Fellowship with believers.
One of the deepest desires of each of us is to build meaningful relationships with others. This is especially true of New Christians who desire to develop their spiritual life. Such relationships can be found through membership in the local church which provides mutual benefits and responsibilities for both the church and the member.
What is expected of you?
- Faithfully attend services.
- Be aware of the total church program locally and globally and support it by prayer.
- Live in a consistent Christian life.
- Serve in the church and it's outreach according to your abilities.
- Share my Christian testimony by word and life on a person-to-person basis.
- Support the church's work by the methods of tithing (giving a tenth of my income) and offerings.
What is expected of the church?
- Minister to your spiritual needs, especially through the preaching of the Word.
- Assist you with godly counsel, especially in times of decision, stress and difficulty.
- Provide you with opportunities for building healthy Christian friendships.
