becoming a member

Our next Catalyst Membership Class will be offered Wednesday evenings - October 9, 16 and 23 from 6p - 7:45p.  CLICK HERE to register.

In an age where commitment is becoming less and less important, we are not afraid to challenge Christ-followers to commit to a local church.  Both the Old and New Testament Scriptures provide ample support for local church membership. Attending Catalyst is encouraged for all those ages 13+ that desier to become a member at Calvary.

 

Church membership expresses a desire...

  • To be held accountable
  • To be set apart (from unbelievers worshipping with the church)
  • To be cared for and belong to a community
  • To persevere with the local church (through good times and bad)
  • To become a minister in the church

 

‘ka-te-list = 1 a person or thing acting as the stimulus in bringing about or hastening a result

For as in one body we have many members, and the members do not all have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ, and individually members one of another. (Romans 12:4-5, ESV)
