A new heart I will give you and a new spirit I will put within you.

Ezekiel 36:26

Our adult membership classes are currently offered twice a year, in late fall and early spring. Membership classes are held on two consecutive Sunday evenings at 5:00 p.m. to introduce you  to the United Methodist Church as a denomination and Fenton UMC as a congregation. 

On New Member Sundays we receive those who are members of another local church by transfer of membership. Those who are not a member of a church, are received by profession of faith in Jesus Christ.

The sacrament of Baptism is a prerequisite for church membership. We acknowledge and accept Baptism from other Christian faiths. Those who have not yet been baptized may receive the Sacrament on the same Sunday morning prior to joining the church.

Youth Membership

This class prepares our youth for their Profession of Faith on Confirmation Sunday in May. Confirmation is a rite of passage celebrating the youth's own decision to publicly confess their faith in Jesus Christ and choose to officially join Christ's church. Youth who have not been baptized will be baptized that morning prior to joining the Church. Contact the Church office for more information.
