Back of Bulletin: Membership

Church Membership is the relationship between a local church like CVBC and a Christian. Throughout the New Testament, God calls and invites individuals to join themselves to a church body. Church membership is how that happens. If you become a member at CVBC, we are committing to you that we will shepherd you, encourage you, and point you to Jesus for the long haul. And you are committing to us to do the very same! It is a way for us to fully act out the vision of the New Testament church together.

So if you are looking for a family to belong to, consider joining us in membership.

Our next membership class is next Sunday, September 26. We will be meeting after our 10:30 A.M. service for lunch. At this meeting, we will talk about our church, what membership entails, and answer any questions you have! Please sign up through our website or in the lobby.
