What is required of me to be a United Methodist?
Baptism ushers you into the Christian Church universal, the family of Christ. If you have not been baptized, you will be asked to repent of your sins and profess your faith in God the Father, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the Christian faith as contained in the scriptures of the Old and New Testaments. You will also be asked to promise to “keep God’s holy will and commandments and walk in the same all the days of your life as a faithful member of Christ’s holy church.” Your pastor may require that you participate in a membership class before being baptized or taking church membership vows.
