Membership at TFC
It is our desire that all members of Trinity Fellowship are
growing as worshippers of the Triune God and being thoroughly equipped
to serve God and others with love. This also includes a commitment to
authentic, growing, and accountible relationships with others. Because
we are elder-led,
membership doesn't carry with it the "privilege" of voting. Rather,
membership reflects a submission to Christ and His church, carrying
both the responsibility to serve and the joy of
belonging to God's family.
To become a member at Trinity Fellowship Church the following is required:
• Affirm TFC's doctrinal statement:
agreement with the Nicene Creed and acknowledging the evangelical
perspective of ministry as reflected in the Statement of Faith of the
National Association of Evangelicals.
• A profession of salvation by faith in Jesus Christ
• Christian Baptism
• Assent to the beliefs, values, and practices of TFC (including our beliefs regarding church discipline)
• Attend the "Step to Discover Real Life Together" (new membership) class-- 5 week class held periodically throughout the year.
• Sign & submit the new member form acknowledging the above.
Step to Discover Real Life Together (new membership) Class
The Step to Discover Real Life Together Class, a 5 week new membership Sunday School class held several
times a year, provides essential information and material for becoming
a part of the Body here at Trinity Fellowship as well a forum to
inquire and comment further about the church.

structure, and ministries.
Discover TFC Luncheons
Throughout the year those new to TFC are encouraged to attend
a Discover TFC Luncheon. Typically held on Sundays after our Ministry Hour, they are
designed to be an informal and relaxing time of interaction with
our staff and elders to learn more about the church and get to know others who are new to the church body.
A Place For You?
There are no perfect churches and that is
certainly true of us. At best every church is a collection of redeemed
sinners led by redeemed sinners. Yet God has been gracious to work in
us and among us. We pray God would give you guidance and wisdom as you
seek His will. We would love to see the Lord lead you to join with us
in serving Him together as part of the Body at Trinity Fellowship
Church.
