How Do I Join Cokesbury?
Holy Baptism
For baptism, reaffirming baptism, or for parents of infants being baptized, the choice of sprinkling, pouring, or immersion in water are offered. When you are baptized or affirm your baptism, the congregation enacts God's grace toward you and welcomes you into the community of faith, the universal church of Jesus Christ, The United Methodist Church, and the local congregation.
Reaffirmation of Faith
To reaffirm your faith and become a member of The United Methodist Church, you will be asked to profess your faith before the congregation and make known your desire to live your daily life as a disciple of Jesus Christ. You will be asked to profess your faith in God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, in Jesus Christ his only Son, and in the Holy Spirit. You will also pledge your loyalty to the life and ministries of The United Methodist Church and to promise to uphold Cokesbury United Methodist Church with your prayers, presence, gifts and service.
Reception into the United MethodistChurch by Letter of Transfer from another Church/Denomination
If you are a member of another part of the church (such as Baptist, Presbyterian or Lutheran), then you will want to prepare to transfer your membership from that church to Cokesbury United Methodist Church by letter of transfer.
